He opens up the marvelous world of Cuban music to his audiences the

tight, multilayered groove it becomes clear that in Adonis Puentes we also have
a bandleader with major cred."

"Adonis Puentes' music bridges generations and cultures with a charisma and delivery that shines brighter than life in
intimate or full-blown arrangements, from solo performances with piano or guitar accompaniment to fronting orchestras.
Throughout history, these traits have been characteristic to the great soneros and this is the time for Adonis Puentes."
Cal Koat, World Beats
"Puentes soars and glides effortlessly over his original material. His songs are fine examples of the kind of
singing Cuban performers are renown for, heartfelt and emotional and delivered with a simple elegance. Nobody does
it better than Adonis Puentes."
Jim McElroy, JazzReview.com
"This handsome young man with the weighty name moves through music with ease. He introduces his first tune playing bongos,
then his smooth, solid voice flows forth naturally, like breathing. A performing musician from an early age, he is always
reading the audience and reacting, inviting them into his sonic world, a world rooted in tradition, strong on Son with
old-style boleros and rumbas - sensual, romantic and earthy."
