This past Saturday the 4th of September, for a four hour stretch, the Bobby Torres Ensemble seduced the slightly conservative, middle class 30-40 yr olds to get off their rumps, from sitting at the tables, to shuffling their feet onto the dance floor!
“Tonight’s show is fabulous because mostly they’re all excellent musicians; but the two singers [Juliana Torres & Karla Harris] are just out of this world…,” stated Carlos Elobisbo

“I came because my sister knows one of the musicians in the band…” said an anonymous, attractive lady at the bar. She continued ” But if it wasn’t for the lack of seating I’d be out there on the floor dancing with the rest of the crowd…”
Most everyone we talked with had similar sentiments regarding how much they enjoyed the band. If you’ve never had a chance to listen to Bobby Torres- classy grounded, heart felt rhythms with some serious seductive qualities is what you’re in for. For instance take a listen to their “I Will Survive” interpretation in Spanish. It’s hard not to feel happy and sad at the same time!
