About the C.O.T. Band

C.O.T. means Circle Of Trust. Back in 2010, our band started performing at a venue with a small stage, in order all of us could see each other and connect better was to form a circle. After a while playing on bigger stages we started making a semi-circle and we like to say that the other half of the circle is completed by the audience.

We play a wide variety of latin rhythms like salsa, merengue, cumbia, timba, bachata, ballenato, reggaeton, bolero, rumba, samba, samba reggae, bossa nova. Also we like to make some fussion with funk, disco and blues. We do play covers, but also play originals, you can check our live videos.

This depends on the band size you select for your event. Regularly our band setup includes classic Guitar, electric Guitar, Drums, Percussion, Trombone, Trumpet, Piano, Bass. Additionally we sometimes add more percussion and brass instruments.

Of course!, we can bring a 3 or 4 piece band for small stages, it includes classic guitar, percussion, keyboard, bass. Just let us know your preference.

That's our specialty!. Our repertoire not only includes salsa for very skilled dancers but also easy rhythm songs that anyone can dance. Additionally we can bring our DJ so we can mix live current hits with latin music. Everyone will be on the dance floor. You'll love it.

Of course!. Just let us know what you have in mind and we'll take care of everything. We can have a solo guitar or piano section for your ceremony, a trio for your cocktail hour (some jazz maybe?), and the full band for the dancing sets on your reception party. Contact us for more specific details and requests.

The PA (Public Address) system projects sounds from instruments voices and acoustic sources to your audience. Choosing the right PA system is a key factor for the success of your event.

If the stage is outside we'll need a tent to protect the instruments. We require cover and a flat, hard, dry surface to play on. Also, water and heat can damage instruments, so please keep this in mind when placing the band. We always recommend to have a backup plan just in case!
