About Vendor 

Learn more about this vendor for your event.

Portland’s Latin Rock Exchange is a ten-piece band that plays Latin rock classics that we all know and love. Please check out our audio sampler to hear our live sound. We are not a traditional Latin salsa band. Instead, we play classic dance hits from Santana, War, Miami Sound Machine, Tito Purnte, Bublé, Barrabas, Yesca, The Buena Vista Social Club, Jobim, Bublé, a dash of Pink Martini and some contemporary hits, always with a Latin percussion flavor. High energy for every special event. Imagine Santana meets Pink Martini with electric guitar, bass, organ, piano, three percussionists, a three-piece horn section, and Alana our lead singer. So far, we have performed at Le Mays Auto Museum in Tacoma, and The Jack London Revue, Alberta Abbey, Atlantis Lounge, McMenamins White Eagle, The Alberta Street pub, and several other key local venues around Portland. We have also done a few shows in partnership with Son De Cuba, by far the best live Cuban band in town. We are especially looking forward to the spring and summer concerts and festivals, as well as wineries, casinos and resorts. We are an ideal party dance band for all ages, with members from around the world, eager to be your perfect entertainment for your special event. And all without any AI! An all guaranteed live human performance by Portland's newest ten-piece band. Produced, managed, and directed by Mark Giles, twice Grammy-nominated musician formerly with Brothers of the Baladi. Latin Rock Exchange aims to be a mix between Santana and Pink Martini with everything in between! Kyle Gemberling created most of the horn charts. Brantley Bacon produces our piano lead sheets. After two years in development, Latin Rock Exchange started booking private gigs in mid 2025. Our first private event here on The Bash was Le Mays Auto Museum in Tacoma in August 2025. We received our first 5 star rating which we intend to maintain. Please do not hesitate to ask any questions. We aim to be the best at what we do. Thank you very much, Mark Please check out our website for our new audio demo 2025!

Private PartyReviewed on August 7, 2025From Tacoma, WA

Mark was wonderful to work with, and the band was fantastic! All of our attendees were on the dance floor and loved the music. Looking forward to working with them in the future!

Latin Rock Exchange:

Latin Rock Exchange were so thrilled to have landed our first private event. The Seventies Social Cars and Cigars at the Le Mays Auto Museum was a sumptuous event, beautifully planned and exceptionally well appointed. The audience came dressed in fabulous seventies outfits and the selection of food from the areas best restaurants and several whiskey and cigar companies offering the best of the best. It's going to be difficult to top this event and we are so very grateful for the opportunity. Laura was wonderful to work with and everything ran smoothly. This is exactly the kind of event, organization, venue and audience we aspire to entertain. Thank you again. It was so much fun and very rewarding!
