Electric Piquette – Latin Funk
Formed in the summer of 2007, Electric Piquete is a two-time Miami New Times Best of Miami “Best Latin Band” award-winning Latin funk outfit. First named so in 2009, they were again crowned as such in 2015. The band has played virtually all major events in South Florida, including the Miami Music Festival, Calle Ocho, Carnaval on the Mile, the Ball & Chain Music Festival, and Arts in the Park. Few major venues have not seen them grace their stage. In 2016, the band graduated to the major festival circuit, travelling to NC to play the GrassRoots Festival of Music Arts & Dance, followed by appearances at the Orange Blossom Festival in 2018 and 2022. They made their Afro Roots Fest debut in Key West during 2019, and performed again in Islamorada during 2021.
