Media Feature: San Diego magazine

Elizabeth Howard (trumpet), Shirley Coggon (trombone), Monica Saenz (timbales), and Justine Dolorfino-Thieman (bass) had a great time talking to Jeff from San Diego Magazine in Fall 2023.

The article has just been published in a recent print issue, and is also available on their website!

During our time with San Diego Magazine, we shared how Sabrosas Latin Orchestra was founded, explained how we fit into the local San Diego live salsa scene, and discussed what we love about the band.

Here’s a little bit of what San Diego Magazine had to say:

Their music is lively and vibrant, with live setlists that mix more traditional salsa standards with salsa-fied versions of cover songs by more contemporary artists like Adele. When the band performs at a festival, street fair, or other outdoor events, they tend to catch people off guard in the best possible way.

Thank you, Jeff, for taking the time to speak to us! We hope to see you soon at an upcoming gig.
