All about The Cuban Brothers...

It’s long been said that Cubans sing when they speak, dance when they walk and woo with a love song so it should be of little surprise that The Cuban Brothers’ peerless funk soul review blends sexy, soulful music, with jaw-dropping b-boy action and riotous comedy. From humble beginnings Miguel Mantovani, Archerio Mantovani and Kengo San have built Los Hermanos Cubanos - The Cuban Brothers - into a legendary outfit that continuously sells out shows across the globe.

Mike Keat (Miguel) started The Cuban Brothers as an entertainment entity after ‘watching dance music disappear up its own arsehole’ (his own words) in the mid to late 90s. His love of b-boying, Latin music and character comedy inspired him to create a fun, irreverent music-driven show to help him showcase his burgeoning talents as a singer, MC and dancer. After enrolling Archie ‘Archerio’ Easton (a former champion b-boy and ex-Prodigy dancer) and Kengo ‘Kengo San’ Oshima (a dance student and earnest wrong-man) the trio was complete and blurring historic fact with fiction and the three elements of entertainment - music comedy and dancing - the three amigos began their foray into filthy fun and funky action.

As hosts of the Gumball Rally for several years, the boys starred in the seminal movie Gumball 3000 introducing them to millions as the main comedy element in the movie. Starring roles in Sky TV’s cult hit Pineapple Dance Studios the BBC’s No Hats No Trainers, a visual mixtape of everything cool that took them to a whole new generation, plus TV specials for Snowbombing and Bestival and various talking heads programmes have kept Los Hermanos ‘on the box’, so to speak.

Future plans include the Cuban’s comedy road movie ‘It’s A Long Way’, shot in Australia in 12 days and 100% improvised in the form of script and action. Released in the summer of 2011 and already causing plenty of excitement it features Mike Keat as another alter-ego, Barry Peters, on a pilgrimage to original AC / DC vocalist Bon Scott’s grave in Freemantle Western Australia. The band’s new album ‘The CBs: Yo Bonita!’ is also due for release this summer and features guest vocals from the likes of Kurtis Blow, Jungle Brother Mike Gee, Yolanda Quartey (Massive Attack) and KT Tunstall.

  • Bio

    The Cuban Brothers are unique. Born of the loins of seventies Havana, nurtured on a diet of soulful, sexy tunes and inspired by Cuban historical fact and mythology – their fresh approach to live entertainment whips up a frenzy at every gig... .. Their legendary performance combines music, which evolves with every show, riotous comedy, both physical and observational, and sensational dancing - consequently the energy at every show is incredible... .. The Cuban Brothers are:.. .. Miguel Mantovani aka Mike Keat: The Cuban legend/ Impresario has found fame and dirty fortune by exploiting himself and others in the seedy world of entertainment and pornography. He has indulged in dark mobster indiscretions, political and sexual controversy and has a myriad of bad boy tales to tell. He has also been one of Cuba's most notorious performers and club owners. His dark and mysterious past provides much of the anecdotal references that gel the show together and link in the key characters... .. Miguel is '50 something' but is still as sharp and cock sure as ever. Now he embarks on a globe trotting adventure taking his eccentric performing family, The Cuban Brothers, on the road. He is a loveable rogue but is fundamentally 'wrong' – and leads The Cuban Brothers into a world of fast paced mayhem and high profile debauchery... .. The dynamic between the main characters Miguel and Archerio is electric – a father / son (actually nephew) combo their relationship is often a power struggle which translates into hilarious, highly physical conjecture. Miguel is the Uncle and pack leader and the highly spirited nephew Archerio represents his own failings and his hopes and dreams simultaneously. .. .. Archerio Mantovani aka Archie Easton: Archerio is Miguel's protégé and graduate of the Havana School of Arts – a talented and inspired side kick who's elevation from Cuban street performer to star has further secured Miguel's international acclaim and notoriety... .. Under his Uncle's genuine but slightly misguided direction Archerio has become an understated and brilliant star - his innocence and naivety provides a quality that contrasts well with Miguel's uber – confidence. Miguel keeps him in his place hierarchically - he is the 'original' talent and has an ego to warrant it - Miguel, also has provided the stage for this talent to develop and both of them, in different ways, have capitalised on the success of their union. Their relationship is loving and competitive providing testosterone charged, exhilarating physical performance and slick slapstick banter. .. .. Clemente Rodriguez aka Russ H: Clemete is the Uncle/ Brother of Miguel, allegedly the campest man in Havana. Clemente has joined the troupe providing the eclectic sound and seamless flow of tunes and karate kicks that keeps the party vibe alive. .. .. Kengo San aka Kengo Oshima is the Japanese love child of Miguel Mantovani. This Cubano freestyle dance champ was sired inadvertently by Miguel on his national service with the Cubano Merchant Navy in 1978. Martial Arts specialist and Habanero School of Performing Arse Graduate, Kengo loves women and food in equal amounts. Hajime!!.. .. The Cuban Brothers: A history.. From stealing the main stage at Manumission to hosting the NME Awards The Cuban Brothers soon became the most desirable act to book for the coolest live events... Perfoming all over the 365 days a year Los Hermanos Cubanos have performed at all the world's biggess party's festivals and clubs including; Bestival, Glastonbury, Rockness, Snowbombing, Hosted Gumball 3000 and Bullrun Rallies, Skol Beats - Brazil, Manumission - Ibiza, Zouk Out - Singapore and Private Parties for Elton John, Damien Hirst and Robbie Williams and many many more! .. There's no doubt The Cuban Brothers are the hardest working boys in entertainment. When they're not performing live all over the world, they're in the studio producing their new album, developing new characters or filming for their eagerly anticipated T.V series. .. ..
