Faustino "El Guayabero" Oramas is the composer of "Candela" and "Marieta", songs made famous by the Buena Vista Social Club.
Now in his mid-90's, Faustino performs Wed's and Sunday's at la Casa de la Trova in Holguin. Showtime is 4:00 pm, cover charge of $1-$2 includes credits for drinks once inside.
Don't miss the chance to buy El Guayabero's CDs! They sell for $10 to $15 at most music stores and at the airport. The recordings are of good quality.
If you get to talk to the band, please say hi from "Yimi".
