Malcolm Alvarez
Born and raised in Camaguey, Cuba, Malcolm Alvarez was deeply influenced by his artistic parents—his mother, a contralto singer, and his father, a sound engineer and artistic director. Pursuing a passion for music, he studied classical clarinet at EVA Luis Casas Romero and José White music schools, guided by esteemed teachers and inspired by notable musicians.
Malcolm excelled, winning first place in the Amadeo Roldan contest and forming a saxophone quartet. He performed with local bands like Salsometro and Tradison before playing in Varadero with Apojeo. Returning to Camaguey, he joined the Boleros de Oro Festival and other projects.
After moving to Louisville, Kentucky, Malcolm played with bands like Rolando Matias and the AfroRican Band, and later with Timbason and the Kentucky All-Stars.
