Yellow House Orchestra plays many original compositions that blend Latin rhythms with Western melodies that cross cultural and musical borders, sparking high energy jams, intricate percussion and vibrant vocals.

Think Pancho Sanchez, Herbie Hancock, Stewart Copeland, Jimmy Bosch, Darryl Hall and Carlos Santana.

The band plays songs from Tito Puente, Poncho Sanchez, Eddie Palmieri, Jimmy Bosch and a cunning array of original compositions, descargas and all out jams.

The band's name is inspired by bandleader Michael Cerda's home, just outside of San Francisco. It is indeed a yellow house. But it's not really the physical house that has the meaning; rather it's the essence of it. That essence is one of hosting, sharing, enjoying, belonging, and showing up for what the world of music has to offer. All that translates into the band's songs, brought together by the musicians and their fiery performances.
