Quinteto Rebelde is a very unique group with a great story. They were formed in 1958 when Che Guevara was starting a rebel radio station in the Sierra Maestra region of eastern Cuba.  "Radio Rebelde" was designed to broadcast the aims of the 26th of July Movement led by Fidel Castro, as well as combat news and traditional Cuban music.  Quinteto Rebelde was tasked to be the musical voice of the revolution. 

Their sound is very rural. To my ear similar to the organic sound of Changui, partly due to the usage of Marímbula as the bass. The Tresero Alcides La O Zamora is a assertive player with a big sound. His improvisations are earthy, well structured and beautiful.

They have a great self-titled album released in 2001 that is available on iTunes.
