William Vivanco is a giant of Cuban music. Look forward to an authentic musical journey to the Caribbean.


William Vivanco, or El Cimarrón, is a Cuban singer-songwriter. He is currently a member of the group Interactivo and is touring Europe with them, but also has his own projects. Now Babylon Mitte were able to get him back for a flying visit to Berlin after his performances last year were so successful.

He mainly writes love songs that taste of the Caribbean island. William goes through the world with his eyes open and was able to produce an album with the knowledge of someone who knows how to touch the soul and reach hearts like magic.

William was born in Santiago de Cuba. He entered the national music scene in 2002 and attracted a lot of attention with the single Cimarrón.

His first album Lo tengo to pensao, produced by Emilio Vega, won him the favor of national and international audiences. Thanks to his vocal training in the Coro Madrigalista de Santiago de Cuba, which is internationally renowned for its quality, his productions encompass the most diverse musical genres. He fuses traditional music with bold Caribbean ideas that reflect a solid local education and a broad musical background. He covers genres such as Latin jazz, son, pilón, reguee, Mozambique, samba and changüí.

His second production was La isla milagrosa in 2006, a production with Descemer Bueno and Roberto Carcassés, and El mundo está cambiao in 2010, with producer Robert Aaron. After several years of spiritual searching and artistic revitalization, William Vivanco produced his album 13 con magia in 2221. In it, he assembles the sum of his previous musical experiences into a musical exploration of his home island of Cuba.
