Afro-Cuban All Stars was the band created by Juan de Marcos González, founder, musical director, A&R and co-producer of the Buenavista Social Club session albums, along with Nick Gold, executive producer and owner of World Circuit Records, to introduce and promote such productions.

Since its debut, the ensemble has performed the best of the Cuban repertoire in its shows, presenting most of the genres that have made Cuba an influential country in terms of popular music, from the most traditional such as Son Montuno, Guajira, Bolero and Danzon, to contemporary ones like Timba and Latin Jazz. Their concerts are simultaneously intellectual, educational and joyful, ending in most cases in a Cuban-style party.
