Event Description

Direct from San Francisco’s fertile music scene, LoCura taps into the diverse sounds that have a rich history in the Bay Area, weaving together flamenco with reggae and cumbia with ska in an uncanny way to reveal their common roots, contagious rhythms and multiple languages. LoCura’s music rides the borders of identity and migration piecing together a mosaic of our myriad cultures and experiences with their own Califas flamenkito, reggae, and Cuban son styles. Moved by the music that crosses borders and takes root in different lands, LoCura draws from this creative ‘rebelde’ spirit to cultivate the cures passed on from our ancestors.

Also performing are La Gente – a Bay Area group led by Colombian/Nicaraguan Rafael Bustamante Sarria that fuses reggae, salsa, hip-hop, cumbia, rock, and reggaeton to create a high energy dance party with politically & socially charged lyrics.
