Combined, the three have performed in front of millions of people in hundreds of countries, with more than 25 albums recorded between them.

What makes DREAMin Live and Wimbash so unique is its collaborative essence, bringing these world famous musicians together with aspiring Dominican artists, such as Soullibre's Van Avakian on drums, rap group Circuito Negro of Santo Domingo and Cabarete's own Culture Shock, featuring Joey Ciotti (lead vocalist/guitarist), formerly of Trixie Goes Hollywood and Platinum Blonde. Dominican breakdance champions Metamorphosis and local Dembow dance competition winners will also join these musicians, showcasing the incredible talent the DR offers in both dance, reggaeton and hip hop. The event is a benefit for the Dominican Dream Project, which supports children's educational programs in the Dominican Republic.
