Pérez Prado: King of the Mambo Book Release Party with Live Music by Charlie Halloran & The Tropicales

Thursday, June 18, 2026 at 11:00 pm

June 18, 2026

Journalist John Radanovich reads from his brand-new biography of the Cuban bandleader known as the King of the Mambo, Pérez Prado. The most famous Cuban musician to perform the exciting and influential mambo, Perez Prado was born in Matanzas, Cuba, home of danzón—the style that contributed to early jazz in New Orleans and provided the base of mambo. Perez Prado became an international sensation in Mexico City in 1949 when his "Mambo No. 5" and "Que Rico Mambo" blazed their way through the airwaves first in Mexico and Latin America and then as a major force in the United States. The author will discuss the Cuban's life and work in the classic Mexican noir cinema called cabareteras, and the beautiful women dancers known as the rumberas like Tongolele and Ninon Sevilla. Pérez Prado: King of the Mambo also examines the little known yet transformative role Cuban rhythms played in 1940s and 1950s New Orleans R&B music by Paul Gayten, Professor Longhair, Dave Bartholomew, Fats Domino, as well as on Louis Jordan, Ray Charles, and all the rock and roll that followed.
