Rastafarian’s Unite! Afro:Baile ends the year with an Afro-Latin Reggae Party
(Phoenix, AZ) — Phoenix are you ready? Join Afro:Baile for an amazing evening of live South American & Caribbean music, art, dance and cuisine, in “Rasta-Bomba Event.”
Afro:Baile will end the year with one last event to send out 2015 with a bang! Get ready and dance to the international sounds & styles of Afro-Latin Reggae rhythms, Cumbia, Salsa, Jazz and a splash of Brazilian Samba! The “Rasta-Bomba” (known as Bomb Club) event will unfold on First Friday, December 4th from 8 p.m. – 2:00 a.m. at Last Exit Live in downtown Phoenix.
Turn down for what has a whole new meaning, as December’s line-up will feature live Afro-Latin Reggae music with special guests, the legendary B-Side Players. The boys from San Diego by way of TJ, have continued to hit the music circuit for more than 20 years playing a mixture of Afro-Latin Diaspora music including Cumbia, Samba, Salsa, Jazz and Funk! The nine-piece band is a cross pollination of international flavors that represent the history of Afro-Latino culture, Caribbean rhythms and Afro-Funk roots music.
Co-headlining the event is special guest “Radio La Chusma” from El Paso, Texas. The five-piece band plays an eclectic style of music known as “Chuco” mixing Reggae, Afro-Cuban rhythms and Latin Rock for a unique blend of heavy grooves and funky dance beats. Rounding out musical duties on the 1’s & 2’s is DJ Seduce, mixing a heavy dose of Brazilian Samba, Samba-Reggae, Afro-Funk, and Salsa jams.
Also joining the evening’s festivities is special guest “Francisco ENUF Garcia,” a Latin artist/muralist from Mexico by way of Phoenix. Francisco is an x-graffiti artist turned community artists for social change, who has gained fans and press around the world, as well as a feature on CNN for his socially proactive art styles.
Local favorite, Quesogood Food Truck will be dropping by with a delicious menu of Latin cuisine that is sure to tantalize the taste buds and keep attendees full all night!
“Bomba Club was created with the idea of engaging and empowering Latinos, Afro-Latinos and Afro-Brazilians, to come together and celebrate culture, but also recognizing the diversity of the Afro-Latin diaspora that makes South America so beautiful,” said DJ Seduce.
