“Best Latin Alternative Band” – LA Weekly
“Creative, Socially Conscious, it’s perfect” – NPR

The phrase “Yo no creo en fronteras!” has become the unofficial mission statement for East LA’s eclectic folk outfit Las Cafeteras. The line from their rabble-rousing hit “La Bamba Rebelde” is an apt description of how cavalier they are about crossing stylistic and geographical borders with their music. This year alone, they’ve dabbled in mainstream pop, opened for Colombian superstar Juanes in Miami, and did a live collaboration with the LA Philharmonic. With every new step they take, the title of their 2012 release, It’s Time, feels more and more prophetic.

Texas born and raised, DJ Chorizo Funk, is one of the premiere sound selectors in the Lone Star state and opens up this night.

His deep passion for music and technical skill behind the turntables guarantee a soulful experience for music lovers and dancers. He’s able to seamlessly mix and connect the dots amongst a wide range of genres such as Afro- Latin, Afro-beat, Funk, Soul, Hip Hop, and more. 2013 Austin Chronicle Best of Austin winner, and the 2012 Lords of Wax champion is also a member of Peligrosa DJ Crew
