Nice, and since you're in the creation phase for the website, I'll give you a small criticism. You might want to change the light brown print on the discription pages to something like purple or bright pink that would stand out more.
And I love the palm leaf shirts as the group uniforms!

Alafia Abure Niallgregory!
I hope that you are well my brother!
Yes! That is quite nice! Good suggestion Abure Windhorse, another color font would be easier on the eyes, especially for us 'viejitos'. 
Your group looks fantastic my friend, are you all the "main" or "only" Afro-Cuban-Rican Percussion group in the area? Wow! That is great all the same.
Buen Trabajo mi pana!
Respect!
Onile!

thanks for your comments guys . Gonna try and keep it updated regularly with mp3,s and some video of us performing .We have some good gigs coming up so i will try and get them up asap .Onile , we are the only group in the country doing this kind of thing .Lots of samba groups and african music but no one doing this style .We change from being a 5 piece percussion and vocal to an 8 piece with bass , guitar/mandolin/tres and timbales .We also have a bata trio that runs alongside the group .The whole idea for cachimbo is to have a collective that takes in all styles of afrolatin percussion .From the folkloric to the dance styles .Its early days but we will get there .
