Frank Maza & Javier Limón present an evening of original music rooted in Cuban, Flamenco, and Jazz tradition. Led by Frank Maza and 10-time Grammy and Latin Grammy-winning producer, composer, songwriter and flamenco guitarist Javier Limón, the performance brings to life a collection of songs shaped by a bridge between cultures. Pure music.
Frank Maza is a singer and story-teller whose music bridges the worlds of American songwriting, Afro-Cuban rhythm, flamenco, and jazz. Raised between Madrid and Boston, Maza grew up surrounded by the legacies of artists such as Bebo Valdés, Paco de Lucía, Nat King Cole, Enrique Morente and Leonard Cohen, developing a voice that feels both timeless and contemporary. His acclaimed album Back Then, produced by Javier Limón, features collaborations with legendary pianist Chucho Valdés, Grammy-nominated vocalist Daymé Arocena, and Cuban jazz master Iván “Melón” Lewis. Through songs that blend storytelling, poetry, and Latin tradition, Maza invites audiences into a world where songs are stories, cultures intersect naturally, and the past inspires something entirely new.

Javier Limón (born 1973) is a record producer, singer and songwriter born and raised in Madrid, Spain. Limón has worked with several artists, mainly from Spain, since he incorporates elements of flamenco rhythm to his work. Besides his work as producer has also dabbled as an interpreter and has released three studio albums, Limón, Son de Limón and Mujeres de Agua. Since 2003, Limón has done recordings in Israel, Bogotá, Bristol, Paris, Bahía Blanca, Buenos Aires, New York City and Morocco. In 2004, Limón was awarded the Latin Grammy Award for Producer of the Year for his work on Lágrimas Negras by Diego El Cigala and Bebo Valdés, Cositas Buenas by Paco de Lucía, El Cantante by Andrés Calamaro, El Pequeño Reloj by Enrique Morente, Niño Josele by Niño Josele and Tributo Flamenco A Don Juan Valderrama by Various Artists. Javier Limón serves as the Artistic Director of the Berklee College of Music’s Mediterranean Music Institute, which operates in Valencia, Spain as well as Boston, Massachusetts
Limón started his own record label, Casa Limón, with the help of a sponsor (a brand of beer named 1906). Limón wanted total creative independence, without pursuing record sales, but to become a well-made product reference. The first album released by the label, Limón (2003), was based on multiculturality and setting down roots. The album includes special appearances by Paco de Lucía, Niño Josele, La Tana and Potito, among others, performing original scores by Limón. Limón asked all the musicians involved on albums by Enrique Morente, Luz Casal, Andrés Calamaro and Paco de Lucía, among others, to join the label because they were always the same. Piranha, Alain Pérez and Niño Josele were the first musicians joining the project. “It’s like a team that has been widening with other artists such as Eliane Elias, Marc Johnson, the jazz people, Carlinhos Brown… I am putting a name on something that already exists.” The album received a Latin Grammy Award nomination for Best Flamenco Album. Concha Buika recorded her first album with Casa Limón and sold 150,000 units in Spain.
