Album Description For a guy who moved from smalltown Cuba to smalltown Canada, Alex Cuba thinks big. Cuban soul rocker Alex Cuba hails from Artemisa, Cuba and resides in Smithers, B.C. Musically, he lives everywhere in between. His sugarcane-sweet melodies, pop-soul hooks and rock chords subvert commonly held notions of what Cuban music is. He is a Juno-Award winner in Canada and has been touring the US for the last three years building a fan base one city at a time. With a heart as big as his retro `fro, Cuba takes it in stride and focuses on what he does best: crafting songs that cut through linguistic and cultural barriers like a machete through sugarcane.

CD ReviewsI love this album. Mrs. CPB | Los Angeles, CA USA | 10/31/2007 (5 out of 5 stars) "This is my favorite album I've bought this year. I happened to hear Alex Cuba being interviewed on the radio and playing a live set. He has a wonderful, warm, rich voice. The album is mostly pretty mellow with fairly simple arrangements but is also lively without being raucous. I love it." Get Agua del Pozo today! Rhonda Welsh | Detroit, MI | 08/11/2007 (5 out of 5 stars) "With his intoxicating voice and romantic rhythms, it is amazing to me that AlexCuba isn't a household name. I stumbled on his MySpace page and I have been hooked ever since. I was a little concerned when I ordered Agua del Pozo, because I don't speak Spanish. My CD arrived today and to my delight he provided the English translations to each song. My favorite cut is Amor Infinito. It gives me the same goosebumps that I felt many years ago when I heard Milton Naciemento's La Travessia (Bridges). Alex is Cuban and Milton is Brazilian, but they both share the same superb musicianship and the rare ability to evoke deep emotion that transcends language. Do yourself a favor. Pick up a copy. Agua Del Pozo. " Beautiful Chrissy Boo | Chicago, IL | 02/08/2008 (5 out of 5 stars) "I caught a glimpse of Alex Cuba on TV the other day on a local Chicago channel reviewing some of his music. I immediately loved his sound. I downloaded the CD immediately, and it met my highest expectations. This is a beautiful album. He has an amazing voice and the guitar is lovely. I'll be counting the days until I can see him perform live. If you're on the fence about this one, download it, you won't be disappointed. It is in Spanish, but you really don't need to speak spanish to completely enjoy it."
