Plena Libre
November 2 @ 7:30 PM - 9:00 PM
The trailblazing Latin Grammy-nominated Plena Libre has thrilled international audiences for nearly three decades with its contemporary, high-energy, dance-infused concerts. Masters of the traditional Puerto Rican plena and bomba styles, Plena Libre fuses well-loved traditions with modern Afro-Caribbean influences, putting a new and always electrifying spin on this scintillating music. With mesmerizing hand drumming, raucous horns, and soaring three-part vocal harmonies, this band always brings the heat. “They can rock the house with traditional singing and drumming, then turn around and lay down a smoking, jazz-heavy, Afro-Rican jam.” – East Bay Express.
