about

Ojos Feos is an all-original world music project, consisting mostly of musicians who have lived in developing countries. The tri-lingual vocal are performed using elements of samba, reggaeton, cumbia, chachacha, reggae, Cuban son and African highlife.

Band leader and music director, Robbie Cree is a native of north-central Montana and the surrounding reservation lands. Witnessing the plight of Native Americans in his hometown, and his exposure to oppressed cultures from charitable medical journeys, raised his awareness of social justice and human rights. After meeting lead guitarist and former music professor from Cuba, Dashel Ruiz, Ojos Feos forged musical compositions that combined upbeat African and Latin rhythms with American styles. Bassist Chris Hale adds rock and jazz elements into Ojos Feos creative and unique groove. Percussionist Eric Johnston's exposure to Caribbean rhythms, while residing in the Dominican Rebublic, adds authenticity to the music. Much of Ojos Feos signature sound is derived from electric violinist Jeff Sulllivan and the multitude of effects that emanate from his pedal board. Colombian-Canadian, Cristina Amaya adds visual effects with her dancing,
