About The Performance

Rooted in Afro-Caribbean rhythms and a commitment to improvisation, Conclave brings new sonic colors and shades of experience to the dance floor. Reflecting leader Cesar Toribio’s youth as a drummer in his church, the group transcends genres to chart territory closer to spiritual jazz than EDM. Conclave’s recent self-titled debut album—praised by Rolling Stone as “alluringly off-kilter”—features deep grooves, soulful dance tunes, and a sound that is spirited in all senses of the word.
