Who is Ronkalunga?
Behind the Music
Ronaldo Rodríguez Hernández, born in eastern Cuba, the cradle of soneros and trovadores, founded:
Ronkalunga in 2018 as a tribute to his African and Caribbean roots. Blending traditional Cuban sounds with global genres like reggae, rock, funk, and pop, Ronkalunga creates a vibrant fusion of changüí, bolero, and trova. The result is a fresh yet rooted sound that bridges cultures, honors heritage, and speaks to an international audience.
“Ronkalunga blends the soul of Cuba with a global pulse. Changüí, bolero, and nengón meet reggae, funk, and Latin jazz in a sound that honors tradition while pushing it forward.“
