Las Cafeteras

May 12 @ 6:00 pm - 8:30 pm

Las Cafeteras have made a significant impact on the music scene with their captivating live performances, traversing various genres and transcending borders along the way. Their vibrant sound and infectious energy have taken them on a global journey, entertaining audiences of all ages.

Originating from East of the Los Angeles River, Las Cafeteras are reimagining traditional music as modern-day troubadours. Their music is a fusion of Afro-Mexican rhythms, electronic beats, and empowering verses that narrate the stories of a community striving to “build a world where many worlds fit.” From Afro-Mexican to Americana, from Soul to Son Jarocho, from Roots to Rock and Hip Hop, Las Cafeteras propel folk music into the future. They also pay homage to the heritage by utilizing captivating traditional instruments such as the 8-string Jarana, 4-string Requinto, Quijada (donkey jawbone), and Tarima (a wooden platform).

Las Cafeteras showcase their versatility by singing in five distinct languages – English, Spanish, Spanglish, Love, and Justice – believing that everyone can connect with at least one of these languages.

Doors open at 5 pm.
