Carlos Pérez is one of the best trombonists of the younger generation. His solid foundation in music allowed him to study at the ENA while at the same time working as a trombonist in Cabaret Parisién of the Hotel Nacional, and later to join T con E, led by Lázaro González, Sr., the father of the leader of Bamboleo. It was with T con E that Carlos did his first foreign tour. Later he joined Tamayito y su Salsa AM, just before he started playing with Paulito FG. His last group before leaving Cuba was a project led by Augusto EnrÃquez.
Currently, he lives in Denmark where he plays with Calixto Oviedo y La Recompensa. He's also been very much in demand as a studio musician in
Havana recently, playing with Sello LA, Issac Delgado and others.
