Mambo refers to both a musical and dance style which first became popular in Cuba in the 1940s. It got its name from a song by Orestes and Cachao López called “Mambo,” which was heavily influenced by the African rhythms of the Haitian culture. In fact, the word Mambo is actually the name of a Haitian Voodoo priestess. By the 1950s the mambo dance was all the rage in the New York, and even today it remains one of the most popular ballroom dances in the world.
