B-Side Players
Live on Stage
Saturday, June 19 at 6:45 pm
The B-Side Players honor the international cross-pollination that makes music the universal language. They use any beat that catches their ear, regardless of geography or genre, to create a compelling, horn-driven, polyrhythmic groove. They explore the multifaceted rhythms of Latin America and the Caribbean, incorporating the sounds of Cuba, Jamaica, Mexico and Brazil with funk, rock, jazz and hip-hop rhythms of the US, dropping bits of cumbia, salsa, gritty street samba, son montuno, jarocho and boogalo into the mix.
The B-Side Players are known for igniting crowds with their fierce energy and uplifting message of unity and consciousness. The band is a living and breathing cultural art experience for the mind body and soul.
