Raíces was modeled on the famous Cal Tjader Quintet of the 1950’s & 60’s by the late Chicago percussionist Rubén Alvarez and is now led by vibraphonist Joe Sonnefeldt. Since their post-pandemic return, the group has thrilled audiences at area music festivals and Chicago performance venues. Raíces includes Stuart Seale on piano, Eric Ferrer on bassist , Bobby Delgado on timbales, and Jorge Leal on congas.
