Ansonia Records was founded in NYC in 1949 by Rafael ‘Ralph’ Pérez, filling a gap in the Latin music market in the U.S., championing Puerto Rican, Cuban, and Dominican artists who were often overlooked by mainstream labels. Pérez, a former Decca Records A&R, built a catalog featuring diverse genres such as merengue, plena, bomba, and mambo, recording both in New York and internationally. Join them on Saturday at Sound & Vision to celebrate one of the most important record labels for music in the Caribbean. They will have records for sale, complimentary drinks, and Yuca appetizers!
