Grupo Borikuas, a Latin band that performs dynamic ethnic music from Puerto
Rico with Afro-Caribbean roots, was born in 1996, five years after its
founder Neftalí Rivera moved to Oregon. The band’s mission is to spread
Puerto Rican music and culture throughout the Portland area with the help
of their beautiful vocal harmony, virtuosic percussion and charming and
friendly stage presence.

Borikuas members are all of Puerto Rican descent who authentically feel
passion for their heritage, their music, and their culture. Sharing this
passion as well as a true friendship, through their presentations and
performances, Ramón Cancel (lead guitar, Puerto Rican cuatro, and vocals),
Aquiles Montas and Martín Velez (percussion and vocals), and Neftalí Rivera
(guitar and lead vocalist) give life to the Puerto Rican music. For more
