On the Record with Joe McCarthy
Four years ago, percussionist and Georgetown music professor Joe McCarthy formed the Caribbean Jazz Project, a Latin jazz band. Since its formation, the band has produced three albums and won local awards for their musicianship. Its latest record, Afro Bop Alliance, has earned the group its first Latin Grammy nomination. McCarthy also formed the World Percussion Ensemble and teaches an Afro-Cuban Percussion class at Georgetown.
