Hey Everyone,
I just got back from my European tour last week and had a lot of fun playing for all of you who were able to come. No two performances were identical and I felt a renewed sense of energy at each location which provided the perfect environment for some improv!
If you missed it, here’s a short recap of my set with Michael Olivera on drums and bassist Reinier Elizarde at Jazz in Marciac.
On another note, I’ll be playing in DTLA this Saturday, 8/15 with a guy I’ve been a big fan of for a while, the L.A. native, incredible producer and fellow Alfred (Alfred and Alfredo!!!), Daedelus. He’ll just be coming off of a tour and congrats to him and his Low End Theory family on an incredible show this last weekend.
On Saturday, I’ll be sharing my classical & jazz piano skills while he remixes with his electronic samples and fat beats….¡Aguaaa! Talented Colburn student Ray Ushikubo will be joining us on piano as well.
It’s free, all ages, and takes place under the L.A. summer skies. You won’t want to miss it!

I’ve been working hard on my new album and have some great collabs with Ibrahim Malouf the double talented Ibeyi. Can’t wait to share!

ALFREDO RODRIGUEZ TRIO IN SPAIN – BEHIND THE SCENES
I’ve been playing classical music since I was 7, and I wanted to take the opportunity to pay tribute to the composers and music that had influenced me so much as a boy growing up in Cuba…

Hi Friends,
I’m still out here having a blast on this European tour, but I’m flying back to LA for one day to play a very special show at the Central Avenue Jazz Festival’s 20th Anniversary. I’ll be hitting the road again to finish the last leg of my European tour after the performance, so I’d love to catch some of you at the show for the short time I’ll be in LA. My brother Henry Cole will be there to jam with me, so feel free to bring your friends and have a good time with us. The weather is supposed to be somewhere in the mid 70s, so it’ll be the perfect day to enjoy the great outdoors!

I was very fortunate to collaborate with one of the greatest artists of our decade, Blum & Poe artist, Henry Taylor, in a project we like to call Synesthesia. Itis about the syndrome where a person sees colors, images or shapes in correspondence to the sounds they hear. We were playing colors and painting sounds; we were pushing the boundaries of what we can create and it was an amazing experience.
And now we’re going to take it to France! I’m very excited to collaborate with renowned French Painter Vincent Corpet and Michael Olivera on drums TOMORROW, Tuesday, July 7th LIVE at one of my favorite music festivals, Jazz á Vienne. This will be the first time we’re doing this live! The event is free so come out and support.
Looking forward to seeing you all very soon.

Hi Friends,
I hope you are all doing well and enjoying the summer; it’s a bit humid over here in Yverdon, Switzerland, but we’re surviving! We’re having a lot of fun on this European tour and I want to say thank you to all of the friends who came out to our shows.
As soon as I finished my performance at the Jazz Bakery in Los Angeles, we got on a plane and went straight to Greece for the Patras International Jazz Festival, then headed over to the Vittoria Jazz Festival. Shortly after, Michael Olivera, Reinier Ruano and I made our way to Vienna and had a blast at Porgy and Bess.
We made a few other stops along the way and truly enjoyed doing some traditional jams as well as some improv. We always love playing into the energy of the audience, so it’s been fun to experience the various cultures and put on what feels almost like an entirely new show at each location.
I’ll be sending out some clips from the performances, so stay tuned for a fun recap!
We’ve got a few more stops on this tour, so feel free to check out where you can join us next.
By the way, I’ll be back in the U.S. playing a show with my brothers, Michael Olivera and Peter Slavov at Subrosa in NYC on 6/28. We’d love to see some of our local friends at the performance and get to hang with you all at the club.

Music & Tour Update!!
I had an amazing time working on some new music for you all this month and I’m very excited to share my new projects with you in the near future!
I was so honored to play at the Walt Disney Imagineering Ideation Summit and perform for such a lively audience. The conference was all about innovation so it was great to learn about how the process of creating an idea is often just as important as the idea itself. In the same way, I love the process of creating new music and figuring out what does or doesn’t work so that I can finally reach the sound I had envisioned.
Also, it was so much fun getting to share the stage with my very talented friend, Ibrahim Maalouf a few days ago. We put on a surprise performance for the audience, so here’s a quick clip of us doing some improv together from the show:
Ibrahim and I have also been working on some stuff for my upcoming album, so stay tuned for new sounds!
The trio and I are getting ready to kick off our tour on June 13th and we’ll be starting in Sicily then travelling throughout Europe. Here’s an outline of where we’ll be during these next few months, so check it out and I’d love to see you there!
Thanks again for your continued support and I’ll see you out on the road!

Music Update!!
Happy April Friends!
March was such a blast!! I had an incredible time creating this new music back in the fall and had an even better time sharing the new music with you in the spring. In case you missed it, I shared 4 new songs throughout the month of March that was “half” tribute to my classical roots, and “half” just a really good time jamming.
“Kaleidoscope”
I wanted this piece to represent what you would imagine hearing when seeing the changing shapes and colors as you look through a kaleidoscope. Click on the image below to listen to the original that I created with percussionists Michael and Borja.
I also want to send a huge thank you to Revive Music for debuting my new music video; check out the article here!
Lastly, Sergei Prokofiev has always been one of my favorite composers. He was such a rebel – his music defied the romantic and lush notions of an early 20th Century Russia. Check out my rendition of his piece titled “Suggestion Diabolique.” Let me know what you think!

NEW MUSIC!!!
“METEORITE”
Blessings!
I’ve always had an affinity for space, the stars, and the universe, and I find great inspiration when I look up at the sky. When we were in Spain, we took some studio time to record a track I wrote titled “Meteorite.”
I hope you enjoy and become inspired like how Michael, Borja, and myself were when we wrote this piece, and like how many others before us become inspired when they look up into the universe!

Hello friends!!
I hope that you guys are well and enjoying the new year.
I’m so excited to announce that I will be sharing new music I’ve been working on for the past few months THIS MONDAY. I’ve been playing classical music since I was 7, and I wanted to take the opportunity to pay tribute to the composers and music that had influenced me so much as a boy growing up in Cuba. I chose to arrange a couple of songs that are close to my heart, and then created a couple of my own compositions with my great buddies Michael Olivera and Borja Barrueta – two of the greatest drummers I know who I admire greatly. The hope is to express this great style of music and to transform it with our experiences and styles of who we are today. I’ll be sharing one new song each week during the month of March… get ready!!!
Here’s a bit of what you can expect:

It’s a beautiful Monday evening in Paris and the streets are winding down. France has treated us well as we continue to celebrate the release of my latest album The Invasion Parade. We kicked off the Europe tour at the Orleans Jazz Festival, stopped by Duc De Lombards, and then performed at a concert of a lifetime in Vienne just 4 days ago.
Myself on piano, Reinier Elizarde on Bass, and Michael Olivera on Drums at the Duc De Lombards show.
Myself, Antonio Miguel, and Michael Olivera at Soundcheck for Jazz á Vienne.
The venue Théâtre Antique de Vienne was built in the first century and sits over 6,000 people. The legendary Quincy Jones brought us to play at Jazz á Vienne and I was introduced as the new generation of jazz, along with my colleagues Nikki Yanofsky, Andreas Varady and Justin Kauflin. It was truly an honor to perform in front of a crowd of music lovers and to share my music with them was gratifying… Especially in such a historic venue of that prestige. I won’t forget it!
Full house at Jazz á Vienne with over 6k people in attendance.
After the great experience in Vienne I went straight to the Vigo, Spain show and now I’m preparing for the second half of the tour in: Italy, Netherlands, Norway, and then France again. If you’re around, stop by any of the music festivals, and bring some friends! Click on the image below for details.
I’m working on a new project as well! I’ll be sending updates, posting new videos from tour, and sharing a new music video with you that should be ready in the next couple weeks. There are a lot of exciting things in the works! Click on any of the links below to stay in touch.
