"A double dose of alma is on tap at the library's West Branch with tamales karaoke, a song session for tweens, teens and anyone who wants to unleash their inner Bad Bunny (or Selena), combining pop songs with a yummy Mexican dish."
"Before he moved back to Recife about 13 years ago, guitarist and composer Carlos Oliveira was a creative force on the Bay Area's Brazilian music scene, and one of the gigs he's playing on a return visit reunites him with former collaborators in the Berkeley Choro Ensemble, a group he co-founded in 2010."
"The Caribbean Allstars are Ashkenaz regulars and one of the first Bay Area bands to infuse the local music scene with reggae grooves, a sound that expands the traditional electric bass-drums-guitars-keyboards lineup with steel drums to also embrace Trinidad and Tobago's calypso and soca."
