By twelve\, he joined one of the era’s top bands\, “El Trabuco Venezolano”\, and a year later was playing alongside the famed salsa singer\, Oscar D’León. \nIn 1992\, Luisito moved to New York City\, swiftly becoming a mainstay in its Latin music and Jazz scenes\, recognized as a top percussionist and often serving as musical director. Unafraid to innovate\, he integrates a broad spectrum of percussion instruments\, such as timbales\, congas\, bongos\, drum sets\, and West African djembe and dundun\, into his performances. \nWith participation in over 700 music productions across genres\, Luisito boasts over 60 Grammy and Latin Grammy Awards.
