Junior's Band performs a unique combination of mainstream pop songs by artists such as Dua Lipa and Calvin Harris with Tropical-hip rhythms underneath. The band is a modern follow-up of the Latin crossover standard set by Gloria Estefan and The Miami Sound Machine. The first single on their album, released on March 16, 2018, is their cover version of Calvin Harris' "My Way" tastefully transformed with Caribbean-hip rhythms. The album's title and music movement (DOYO - Dance on your own) engages audiences in dancing freely and creating their dance moves based on the vivacious feeling provoked by the music.

I'm not sure that Broadway, or anyone for that matter, was asking for a jukebox musical about Gloria and Emilio Estefan's lives to take the stage in 2015, but after the success of musicals about Carole King (BEAUTIFUL) and recording industry legend Berry Gordy (MOTOWN: THE MUSICAL), I suppose you can't blame the pair (along with book writer Alexander Dinelaris) for trying. But, despite the handful of toe-tapping tunes, ON YOUR FEET! barely jumps off the page.
