About this event

Latin Night At The Jazz Bar continues with a live Salsa special combined with a live Cumbia trip into the heart of Amazonian Cumbia “chicha” ORQUESTA BOREAL The sensational live salsa experience that is Orquesta Boreal return to the Jazz Bar. Last month saw them joined by none other than Beny Luis of Timba Britannica fame for one outstanding Festival special And their set was on fire, taking their interpretation of that tough New York/San Juan salsa sound to a completely new level. They have laid down a foundation for live salsa, and it has taken off across the scene with a huge following of appreciative salseros all eager to savour the excitement and rhythm that only a ten piece of salsa specialists can bring PLUS CUMBIATONES Live cumbia caliente with the Capital’s “chicha” crew. When it comes to why Edinburgh has fallen seriously in love with “chicha” cumbia then a lot of the credit has to go to this outfit Their energy, their musicality, and their groove takes some beating. The perfect outfit to take us on a trip into the wee small hours via the rhythms of Columbia, laced with melodies across the Andes and delivered with a healthy dose of surf guitar DJ-Simon Hodge Itinerary Doors-9pm DJ:9-10pm Orquesta Boreal:10-11.30pm DJ:11.30-12.30am Cumbiatones:12.30-2am DJ:2-3am
