The show benefits schools in the Bay Area dealing with autism on a daily basis.  This disorder has increased recently to 1 in 150 births, up from 1 in 166 just a few years ago.  When questioned about special needs children in the most recent presidential debates, both candidates mentioned the need for increased funding for research for autism, specifically as it approaches epidemic numbers. With your help we can continue our support of both schools and research for autism.  This year our goal is to do both.

About Tierra:

Tierra, the band named "Best R&B Vocal Group" by four leading magazines including Billboard. They started their career in East Los Angeles with a blend of rock, pop, jazz, R&B and salsa. The result was a Latin R&B rhythm which produced classics like "Together", "Gonna Find Her", "Memories" and "Zoot Suit Boogie". The band's quarter century commitment shows a dedication that can only be understood by listening to their smooth and soulful sounds.

Tierra was the first Latino band to have four songs on the national chart and two simultaneously in the Top 100. They have performed in such prestigious shows such as Carnegie Hall, The American Music Awards, American Bandstand, and The Dorothy Chandler Pavilion.

Tierra is widely known to have played a role in opening doors for other Latino and non-Latino superstars of today, including comedian Paul Rodriguez, Arsenio Hall, Sheila E., Gloria Estefan, Los Lobos, Latino Comic of the Year, Rudy Moreno, and more.

Leader of the band, Rudy Salas holds the foundation of the group strong as he leads TIERRA into the new millenium. With their new CD, "Welcome to Cafe East L.A.", a billingual album “Two Worlds/Dos Mundos”, and a recently released Greatest Hits album, this is one band that will not stop!

About Puro Bandido:

Puro Bandido was formed by Jose "El Bandido" Mayorga in 1979 whose vision and dream to form a band to fit his unique persona and that would capture the true San Francisco Mission District Experience! He carefully scoped out the late 70's music scene and hand picked the best of the best in local bands and recruited two original members to join the Bandido Posse. Richard Segovia & Rolando "Choco" Contreras that would bring his vision and sound to life and have captured the True Mission District Culture, Style & SAVOR! Jose "El Bandido" Mayorga may you rest easy knowing that YOUR DREAM LIVES ON THROUGH PURO BANDIDO!!!! PURO BANDIDO is more than a refreshing new musical group – it is a new attitude and an eclectic new sound that mesmerizes its audiences with its incredible stage presence, driving rhythms, soaring guitars, and precise musical execution. Puro Bandido was formed by Jose Mayorga in 1978. Jose, now deceased, was joined by Richard Segovia and Rolando Contreras keeping Jose's dreams alive with the other members of Puro Bandido. The music is high energy, Latin Rock and was formed in the Mission District of San Francisco.
