L.A. Carpool - La Luna Negra (Black Moon)
Latin, Smooth Jazz
California, United States
Overall Impression: La Luna Negra is a fun salsa/latin song that is definitely meant for dancing the night away. Anyone who is a fan of Marc Anthony, Celia Cruz or Santana will like L.A. Carpool. This is just a sexy summer song that's meant for celebration.
Strongest Point(s): I love the name of the band and the name of the single. It's a really good arrangement and recording; I was surprised to discover it was recorded in a home studio, and not in a professional studio or live show.
Target Audience Appeal: Men and women who love to dance salsa, latino, merengue, or any type of partner dancing. This is also a party song that can easily be enjoyed by all audiences who love latino dance music
Artist target suggestions: Marc Anthony, Spanish Harlem Orchestra, Buena Vista Social Club, Jennifer Lopez, Luis Enrique, Juan Luis Guerra, Selena, Los Fabulosos Cadillacs, Sheila E., Celia Cruz
