Bad Hombre

Bad Hombre is a studio album by drummer Antonio Sánchez released on September 29, 2017 via CAM Jazz label.

[7] Mike Hobart of Financial Times stated "Here, he develops his grasp of the cinematic with an atmospheric and imaginative solo recording that envelops beautifully formed drum creations with layers of keyboards and electronica.

The album begins with a scratchy recording of Sanchez’ grandfather reading poetry backed by a mariachi band.

Mexican roots established, crisp funky beats deliver a platform for the narratives that follow.

Cormac Larkin of The Irish Times wrote "Bad Hombre—named for the alter ego he adopts therein—is a bravura display of contemporary acoustic drumming overlaid with a pungent, densely mixed soup of keyboards, electronic noise and voice, the answer to the question: if a great drummer can play anything he wants, what does he play?"
