The three-time Grammy Award winning band have also released more new music from their forthcoming album Marching On.  New single, “Una Mas,” is available now on all digital services. Listen to “Una Mas” now.

Last year, the band debuted two new singles from the album – the soulful grooves of “Mi Destino,” featuring guests B-Real (Cypress Hill/Prophets of Rage) and vocalist, Gaby Moreno, was featured on KCRW while the freestyle dance party tune, “Fellas” which features Lisa Lisa of Cult Jam fame and the ladies of J.J. Fad became a sought out duet on tik tok.  Following in March, influential Los Angeles based radio station, KCRW, premiered the maraca shaking single, “Sacude” on KCRW's “Morning Becomes Eclectic” and the reggae tinged, island swaying ’Sunsets’ debuted last month.

Produced by David Garza (Fiona Apple), Marching On features the six Ozo core members: Asdru Sierra (lead vocals, trumpet, keyboards), Raul Pacheco (lead vocals, guitar), Willy (Wil-Dog) Abers (bass, vocals), Justin Poree (rap, vocals, percussion), Ulises Bella (saxophone, melodica, clarinet, guitar, requinto, keyboards, vocals) and Jiro Yamaguchi (drums, percussion) as well as the previously mentioned special guests.
