I just want to echo the above postings. Chuck has a wealth of contacts in Cuba. I'd imagine that he would put you in touch with "Lali" in Havana, but he also has some contacts in other cities as well such as Santiago de Cuba.
Btw, if you haven't been to Cuba before, it can be a challenging travel experience. Get as much info as you can, plan well because changing plans can be a major pain. Everything is done by paper, there are many odd regulations regarding all types of things and the culture of the economy can take some getting used to.
If you are going with an organized tour, the challenges might be minimized. In any case, best of luck and enjoy the music.
