populated soundscapes
turning
back the hands
of time
with an electrifying
presentation
of
ripened
pieces of music
A two-time
“Grammy” winner
a soulful guitarist
&
rootscentric singer
who motivates women
young and old
to make
a
mad dash
to
a fenced enclosure
screaming insanely
and some
quake unsteadily
Hot Latin jazz
a seasoned emsemble
led by
a chacano conguero
with
callous hands
pounding
upon taut animal skins
releasing primal
feeling
from deep within
the soul
the body moves
and shout of
“Do It”
ring out
Folks
who take pleasure in
the vintage wine
tasty creative cuisines
inspired artwork
and
sizzling jazz
at its best
will return next year
