Rio 18, alongside Carwyn Ellis conceptualise an intriguing blend of musical flare for their new salsa song ‘Casa Loca.’ Their percussionist, Baldo Verdú, who is responsible for much of the instrumentals, puts in an incredible performance.

The song is taken from their upcoming album ‘Radio Chevere,’ and is due for release on Légère Recordings in September.
