Tropical Jazz Big Band, Japanese name: 熱帯JAZZ楽団 (Nettai Jazz Gakudan), and incorrectly referred to in the United States as Nettai Tropical Jazz Big Band is a Japanese latin jazz big band.

Contents

Led by Carlos Kanno from Orquesta de la Luz, the Nettai Tropical Jazz Big Band started out as a group of friends playing for fun and evolved into an 18-piece ensemble. Boasting four percussionists, a three-piece rhythm section, and powerful horns, the group released their first album Live in Yokohama in 1998. That year also saw the Japanese in the United States the following year. They have played at various jazz festivals and venues, including Carnegie Hall in New York City, United States.
