• DIGIPACK EDITION

La Lucha presents their newest album and debut, Everybody Wants To Rule The World. This project displays the telepathic interplay you expect from a band that’s been together for years.

The trio consists of best friends from three different parts of the world: Colombia (bassist Alejandro Arenas), Mexico (pianist John O’Leary), and the United States (drummer Mark Feinman), who met in 2006.

The combination of these three spirited personalities has endeared listeners to the band, and to an ever-widening circle of collaborators. La Lucha has built an impressive resume performing with jazz legends including Randy Brecker, Dick Hyman, Charles McPherson, Wycliffe Gordon, Marty Morell; as well as, the renowned guests that appear on this album: Melissa Aldana, Ken Peplowski, Chuck Redd, Diego Figueiredo, & Houston Person.
