About the Artists
Orquesta Afinke (Ohr-KESS-tah Ah-FEEN-keh) is a 10-piece Latin band based in Northwest Arkansas performing live salsa, merengue, cumbia, and bachata classics. They’re re-energizing the Latin songs we know and love as a new generation of musicians. Orquesta Afinke was born out of the music buildings at the University of Arkansas, bringing together a group of college musicians ready to take on these beloved genres during an exciting time for Latin music in today’s music industry. Hoping to inspire you to get on the dance floor and connect with the music and the people around you, Orquesta Afinke plays hits from artists like Frankie Ruiz, Bad Bunny, Willie Colón, Grupo Niche, Karol G, Romeo Santos, and so many more.
Their sets are built for dancing, with a strong percussion section, crisp hornline, Latin grooves, and vocalists Isabel Fuentes and Jose Rodriguez singing melodies we all know and love. Orquesta Afinke brings live, loud Latin music to any venue and invites you to ask the person next to you to dance.
