Locos Por Juana is a GRAMMY and Latin GRAMMY nominated bilingual Latin Jam-Band, most notably recognized for their energetic live performance and unique fusion of Latin, Caribbean, and American rhythms. The band was formed in Miami, FL in 2000. Locos Por Juana’s sound is a distinct one, a hybrid drawing not only from the band members' diverse backgrounds but also from other countries' musical styles as well.

Caique Vidal is an accomplished performer, percussionist, and songwriter from Salvador da Bahia - the center of historic African culture in Brazil. Vidal has toured many countries with different bands and performance groups to share his native culture and traditions. Caique Vidal and Batuque is a unique band that brings infectious energy, riveting dance grooves, and provides an insight to Afro-Brazilian culture which is greatly needed in the music world of today. “Batuque” means “to drum” and the band delivers an explosive performance that integrates the sounds of percussion with a modern style in an entertaining way that engages and rocks the entire audience!
