BIOGRAPHY

Son of the great and famous pianist and composer -Emilio Ramirez Garcia, Manú Ramírez was born in Guatemala City and studied music at the Guatemalan National Conservatory of Music.

Manú was the original founder and drummer of "PLASTICO PESADO" or "HEAVY PLASTIC" the first original rock band from  Guatemala. This band later evolved into a more experimental original group called “QUETZALUMAN".

Manu was later recruited to play drums in "PROPHECY" a band in the San Francisco bay area in California, where he lived for a number of years and played with different jazz and rock bands, some of these bands sharing the stage with famous groups including the Red Hot Chilli Peppers. Manú also played bass for Blue Grass/Country western legend Pete Seeger.

Manu is the founder and leader of RUMBA CASINO/LATINO HOUSE, a group which truly exposes Manu's Latin roots and has proved to be one of the most original, traditional and innovative Latin bands in Ireland.
