Based out of Chicago, Illinois, Latin Swing Factor fuses traditional Puerto Rican salsa swing with a Chicago soulful twist and also excels at performing all the standard salsa band hits that have everyone on the dance floor!

Latin Swing Factor

Born of a Husband & Wife Team

Both veterans of the Chicago music and entertainment scene, Tino, a Chicago Humboldt Park native of Puerto Rican and Mexican descent, and Valerie, a Southern California native of Mexican descent, both grew up loving salsa; Tino as a musician and Valerie as a salsa dancer and dance instructor.

With having upbringings that surrounded them with soul and R&B music, music that they grew to love, they decided to fuse the two loves, and in doing so, want to bring salsa music to a wider audience, incorporating classic Top 40 soul and funk hits we have all known to love!

Built For Versatility

Tino & The Latin Swing Factor is a group of very versatile, professional musicians, from Classical to Jazz, Cumbia to Salsa. The musicians that form this culturally multifaceted group were hand-picked to meet the live music demands of weddings and private events alike!
