Cimafunk Brings the Funk to Discovery Green When I visited Cuba in 2016, I fell in love with the people, the food, the art, and especially the music. That trip deepened my appreciation for Buena Vista Social Club, Chucho Valdés, and Celia Cruz. So when Cimafunk took the stage at Jazzy Sundays in the Parks at Discovery Green, I came expecting a connection to Cuba.
