PERFORMERS
Mbongwana Star
7:00 PM
Hailing from Kinshasa, the capital of the Democratic Republic of Congo, the band has created a sound that embodies the “smashed-together” nature of the surroundings from which it was born—a sound that fuses traditional Congolese rhythms with European post-punk bass and busted electronics from recycled and reconstructed instruments miked and distorted in unexpected ways.
Plena Libre
8:30 PM
WIth hard-hitting horns, master hand drummers, and songs from the soul of Puerto Rico, Plena Libre has been called the torch bearer of Puerto Rican plena, bomba, and beyond.
DJ Dongo
10:00 PM
The MIX favorite spins Brazilian rhythms to close out the night.
Cash bar. Food available for purchase.
Join us on the first Friday evening of each month for an ever-changing mix of art, music, and mingling. MIX is an 18-and-over event.
