Fellé Vega, is a well respected Dominican artist; a percussionist native of Santiago De Los Caballeros who defines himself as an "Imaginary Folklorist."

Percussionist, composer, inventor, instrument designer, who over the course of his multi-faceted 25-year career has shared the national and international stage with many notable artists, has participated in numerous jazz festivals, has led several musical groups, and has served as instructor and lecturer at percussion workshops in addition to being a composer and designer of musical instruments.

This craftsman of rhythms and varied instruments exhibits in his music a strong ethnic fusion that is the result of the African, Spanish and Taino influence ever-present in the Caribbean.

Devoted to finding "the sound of life," Fellé has distinguished himself by his experimentation with recyclable materials and everyday objects that have percussive possibilities, such as pails, lids and pots, which he then turns into musical instruments.

His use of such materials to create music has earned him on many occasions the title of "musical wizard" from Dominican music critics.

As a professional musician, he has shared the bill with world-renowned artists such as Juan Luís Guerra, Sergio Mendes, Julio Iglesias, Gonzalo Rubalcaba, Paquito D’ Rivera, Rafael de España, Arturo Sandoval, Furito Ríos, Humberto Ramírez, Joel Rosenblatt, Paoli Mejías, Chichi Peralta, Guarionex Aquino, among others. Felle Vega recently shared stage with Sting at his Broken music tour concert at Altos de Chavón.

Mezcladas: The music of Vega, and la orquesta de las danzas mezcladas, is varied to say the least; taking in many styles and instruments so that you just do not know quite what to expect next! Or, possibly; quite where the sounds could have come from.

Amongst the accordion, guitar, and violin; are the things that give Fellé Vega his most unique trait ; the ability to make music from normal ordinary objects of day to day life, such as buckets, lids, and pots.

This ability and talent, takes you from a Jazz group, on to something that cannot be held down with a label or a description; and truly needs to be heard to be fully appreciated, drawing feelings from such influences as African, Spanish, Taino, the Oriental, and of course Dominican folklore, you feel like you are learning about the backgrounds and past of these locations purely by listening to the songs.

The band is composed of well-known Dominican musicians with vast experience in their craft: Oscar Almonte (guitar), Jose Marte (accordion), Eugenio Monte de Oca (Tuba), Ivanova Casimiro (Violin), Cukin Curiel Percussion), Eliezer Ramirez Percussion), Fellé Vega (director, vocals, percussion).
