The classically trained Cuban jazz ensemble consists of alumnae who majored in music theory at the prestigious Amadeo Roldan Music Conservatory in Havana. The four young ladies began collectively in their early teens singing for several school functions, which got them noticed fairly quickly. Immediately after completing their formal training they took to the professional circuit where their name and reputation became a staple in the Cuban music culture. After just a few months of performing on the local music scene, their talent landed the group numerous bookings as the preferred ensemble at Cuban state functions representing the best new talent of the country. Recognized as the leading female vocal group by Cuba's most influential and critical music icons, SEXTO SENTIDO is breathing new life into the international jazz scene. The ladies frequently collaborate with legendary artists such as Chucho Valdes, Pablo Milanes, Silvio Rodriguez. Certified by Valdes as "Creators of the most important vocal-work in Cuba in past three decades. Their ability to dwell inside complex harmonic arrangements transcends Cuba".

SEXTO SENTIDO recorded their first record "Bossa Cubana" (Elephant Records) after travelling abroad for various cultural events. The project featured a collection of classic Brazilian songs tinged with Cuban elements. Their newest release "MI FEELING" (Ahi Nama) has already achieved strong remarks including Best Vocal Recording at the Cubadisco International Expo and is consistently gaining airplay across jazz radio stations in the NPR/PRI Network. With this release, SEXTO SENTIDO implements their own style and interpretation of the classic works of Cuba's most respected writers and composers, such as Rene Touzet, Marta Valdes and Jose Dolores Quinones.

SEXTO SENTIDO has now become a familiar entity with audiences far outside of Cuba due to frequent appearances on the jazz festival circuit throughout Europe where they became a national sensation in countries like Russia, France, Bulgaria, and Monaco. They've experienced increased popularity across Latin America as well at various cultural festivals as ambassadors of traditional Cuban jazz. The ladies of SEXTO SENTIDO have also enjoyed working with contemporary music producers like Guy Sigsworth and Norman Cook (aka Fatboy-Slim). They've recorded multiple tracks for film projects produced by the London-based studio NDF International bringing SEXTO SENTIDO's work into a new medium.
