Dayramir González started his professional career as a pianist and composer at the age of sixteen with former Irakere member Oscar Valdes Afro Cuban jazz ensemble Diákara. He received the highest awards at Havana’s JoJazz festival in 2004 and 2005 and three Cubadisco awards for his 2007 debut album Dayramir & Habana enTRANCé before proceeding to Berklee College of Music as the first Cuban national Presidential Scholarship recipient.

Since completing his education he has performed in 15,000 seat stadiums with legends Chucho and Bebo Valdes, and has headlined Carnegie Hall as a representative of the young generation of Afro-Cuban jazz. With multiple albums in his portfolio, González has developed an international following in clubs, concert halls, and festival appearances throughout North and South America as well as Europe. A United States citizen, González still performs annually in Cuba at the legendary Jazz Plaza Festival in Havana while staying close to his cultural and creative roots.
