Event Description
Come join us to a celebration of Afro-Colombian music with Neblinas del Pacífico featuring Grammy Award Nominee Eryen Korath Ortiz Garcés.
The band Neblinas del Pacífico (La Mission, San Francisco) presents a sound fabric of marimba de chonta music from the Afro-Colombian Pacific: music of rivers and mangroves, of polyrhythms and harmonies, of spirituality and everyday life, of ancestors and tradition, of celebration and resistance. Featuring instruments like marimba de chonta, bombos, cununos, and guasás, their performance is a vibrant celebration of Colombia's Pacific Coast heritage.
