Despite Cuba and Jamaica being two of the world's most influential musical nations (and only 90 miles apart), there has been very little musical collaboration between the two islands - until now. This project will fire up a melting pot of traditional and contemporary Cuban and Jamaican music, and intends to explore and develop new styles and sounds as we bring some of the best musicians from both islands together for the first time in Havana. Presenting a truly international musical experience, this will also be the first album sung simultaneously in Spanish, English and Jamaican Patois. The international artists will come together to record at Havana's famed Egrem studios in Cuba. Over the course of eight days, the musicians will collaborate, compose and improvise together to create an incredible full length album. By bringing such gifted and established musicians into a unique recording situation, we intend to showcase the best of each island's musical heritage as well as encourage completely new fusions of styles. The eight days recording in Cuba will only be one aspect of the recording process.

Further overdubs incorporating many more vocalists and musicians will take place in Jamaica and Australia following the sessions in Cuba. The completed album will be mixed and mastered in Australia. To honour this historical meeting of cultures, we are enlisting the help of internationally acclaimed filmmakers Rick Mereki and Lauren Beck to document every moment. With your help, they will produce an independent film which celebrates the music and stories of the artists & musicians involved in this monumental project.

WHERE WILL THE MONEY GO There are many costs associated with creating an album and documentary of this scale. We have successfully secured support from the Australia Council to help with the recording costs in Cuba and Australia. We now need your assistance with international travel costs, studio and equipment hire, engineer and artist fees, legal expenses and permits for our artists and film crew. We have set our funding target as modestly as possible, requesting the minimum amount still needed to make this project possible.
