Mandorico has sold 20,000 copies of their three full length recordings: Flamatam (2002), Afrocubanhiphopcaribbeanrock (2000) and Familiar Places (1998). Their "The eight-member band includes three horn players, three percussionists (including Lauricella, who plays congas and sings), bass and guitar. Their tight horn charts and interlocked percussive attack make for an explosive wall of sound that dissolves musical preconceptions and creates converts everywhere they play." - Winston-Salem Journal, January 2003    |
