ABOUT LAS CAFETERAS

Las Cafeteras sprouted in 2006 as students who enjoyed free son jarocho classes and decided to share the magic of this folk music from Southern Veracruz with the public. Las Cafeteras has opened for groups including Ozomatli, Zack de la Rocha (of Rage Against the Machine), La Santa Cecilia, Fool’s Gold, and Quetzal. The band combines the vibrant energy of son jarocho music with an edgy LA-alternative sound, and political message. Their pounding Afro-Mexican rhythms, stomping zapateado dancing, and uplifting lyrics tell stories of everyday people.
Parking is $5 on Friday nights after 4pm with validation from one of the retail or restaurant merchants (no min $ purchase)!
Kick off your weekend with the BEST weekly event of the summer! Come every week to make sure you catch all these locally famous and emerging headliner bands.
