The outstanding band members include musicians from various backgrounds and styles, all combining their feel and enthusiasm in the Latin American music world. The Project started in July 2001 with Pepa Quiroga and Edgar Macchiavello in command with the goal of developing new beats for a roughly 150 songs that were already written. It happened that many new songs were created and for the first time in 15 years of music collaboration, Pepa and Edgar started to write songs together. Songs like “Imposible” is an ironic tango feel with Pepa’s lyrics and Edgar’s music. An Uruguayian “condombe” feel is recognizable in “Musica Presente”. A cha-cha-cha was unavoidable and “Inspiracion” was created in 2002. Mucho Axe delivers a refreshing new sound. Combining rhythms and passion from all different latin styles and countries.

*21 and over for all dance events*

Jelly’s Havana Cafe

295 Terry Francois Street | Pier 50 | San Francisco | CA 94158 | 415.495.3099

About Mazacote:

Mazacote is the hard-swinging, old-school salsa group led by legendary percussionist Louie Romero, who came to fans’ attention as the longtime timbales player for famed salsero “El Cantante” Hector Lavoe. Louie is also renowned for his work with Willie Colón, Rubén Blades, Celia Cruz, Ron Carter, and other salsa and jazz stars in his native New York.

Based in San Francisco, Mazacote plays a crowd-pleasing, high-energy mixture of classic salsa favorites and original latin jazz tunes. It’s no wonder that Latin Beat magazine called Mazacote “one of the premier salsa ensembles in Northern California.”

Recently, the band released the album “Timbalero.” Its title track is a fresh take on Louie’s classic 1972 recording of the song with Hector Lavoe and Willie Colón. The album — filled with soulful and danceable salsa, cha-cha, latin jazz, Cuban guajira, and bomba — is receiving rave reviews from dancers, DJs, and music critics alike.

Bring your friends, dance shoes and love of food and wine to the 3rd Annual Sonoma County Salsa Dance Festival, an event that is rapidly gaining popularity among dance and music enthusiasts.  This multi-cultural event offers a full day of activities.

Highlights include:

• Multiple dance workshops by internationally renowned dance instructors, 2-5 pm
• Wine & food tasting from local vineyards and restaurants, 5-7pm
• Yucatan cuisine by Chef Mateo Granandos and wine/beer are available for purchase during Gala

This year’s Salsa Band, Orquesta Tabaco y Ron is a 12 piece “Big Band” orchestra composed of musicians from all over Latin America including Puerto Rico, Cuba, Costa Rica, Venezuela, Peru, Colombia and Mexico.  Their stunning rhythms create a contagious energy that revives the salsa sounds of generations past.

All proceeds from the festival will benefit the Buena Vista Children’s Foundation, a non-profit that impacts the lives of children through the miracle of sight.  The Foundation hosts an annual clinic that provides free eye exams and glasses to underprivileged  children in Sonoma County.  Considering that 80% of all learning in a child’s first 12 years comes through the eyes, good vision is important for success in school.

“Most children do not complain about poor vision, because they think that everyone must see the world the way they do, and unfortunatley go many years without the proper eyewear,” said co-founder of BVCF Dr. Antonio Moran, O.D.  It is cases like these that inspired Dr. Moran and his wife, Irene Silva, to get involved and make a difference.  As co-owners of Santa Rosa Salsa they searched for a way to combine thier love of Salsa music and dance and their commitment to community service.  They combined Dr. Moran’s Passion for optometry and their love of Salsa music and dance.  In 2007 they formed the Buena Vista Children’s Foundation, and made the festival a fundraising event.  They wanted to bring the music and culture of Salsa to Sonoma County and at the same time impact the lives of children through the miracle of sight.

Dr. Antonio Moran, O.D. and Irene Silva are children of Mexican immigrants.  Their parents came to the Napa Sonoma Valleys in the 1950’s to build a better life for their families.  Fulfilling thier parents commitment, Dr. Moran graduated from the prestigious UC Berkeley School of Optometry and Irene Silva recieved a Bachelor of Art degree in Economics with a minor in Communications from UC Davis.  Dr. Moran and his wife share those same values with their own family, emphasizing as well the importance of commitment to education and to their community.

November 20-23, 2008.

The Annual SF Bay Area International Congress presents over 50 dance workshops spread over 3 days, 4 top level evening dance shows each night with all star performers from over 20 different countries, an afternoon showcase presenting new talent in the Salsa World, and the highly anticipated Dance Competition Showcase on Sunday. In addition to your choice of 3-4 quality workshops each hour on Sunday, don’t miss the competitions! Sunday was the day that rocked the Salsa World in 2006. The Open level Jack & Jill, at the noon hour, was a fun way to meet your fellow Salseros and share the spotlight in showing off your best social dancing skills. Winners were announced and prizes given out. Not a bad way to end an already fantastic weekend. But it was the Master’s level Jack & Jill., by invitation only, that made, and continues to make history and put together every single big name in salsa all on one dance floor battling out their social prowess. What a feast for the eyes. Those that were there in the audience all wish they had their video camera as they watched each dancer in awe.

The competitions continue with the International/Out of State qualifying rounds followed by the highly prestigious amateur and professional finals at night. 5 categories of competition: Amateur, Professional on 1, Professional on 2, Teams and Cabaret. For many, this is where the stars are born and they kick off their salsa dance careers with a bang. This November, it all happens again. For one weekend and in only one place in the SF Bay Area, you can dance until 4 AM in the morning, Friday, Saturday, and NOW Sunday, as you enjoy World Class DJ’s spinning the best in salsa and chachacha, and also be treated to live music each night. This year, while the shows are going on, you can still get more social dancing in as we open up the lobby for non-stop salsa. Did we mention, SF Congress is taking over the entire hotel this year? All the rooms are dedicated to the SF BAY AREA SALSA CONGRESS! You can continue the party at breakfast in the hotel with your friends, and then take the elebator up to your room for just a few precious hours of sleep until you get up for workshops in the morning and get ready to do it all over again. Are you ready for the 7th Annual SF BAY AREA SALSA CONGRESS? All event held at the Oakland Marriott City Convention Center. Open to the public, all ages welcome.

FRIDAY: Herman Olivera with Conjunto Rovira (New York). In 2001, singer Herman Olivera received long overdue props as featured vocalist on three tracks of the Grammy-winning CD, Masterpiece/Obra Maestra (RMM) by Tito Puente and Eddie Palmieri. Since his days with Conjunto Libre, Herman has honed a style gleaning from the great soneros of Palladium-era in New York City like Tito Rodriguez, Machito, Santos Colón and others. With a smooth resonate high tenor voice, the self-taught vocalist has contributed great interpretations and metaphorically rich inspiraciones (improvised verses) to an array of tunes such as Que Humanidad, Café, and Palo Pa’ Rumba. His stints with Eddie Palmieri and the Machito Orchestra have helped Olivera ascend as a world class salsa singer.

SATURDAY: Eddie Palmieri (New York): Eddie Palmieri, known for his charismatic power and bold innovative drive, has a musical career that spans over 50 years as a bandleader of Salsa and Latin Jazz orchestras. With a discography that includes 36 titles, Mr. Palmieri has been awarded Nine Grammy Awards. He received his first Grammy Award in 1975 for his release The Sun of Latin Music, which is often considered the most historic, as it was the first time Latin Music was recognized by the National Academy of Recording Arts & Sciences.

SUNDAY: Jimmy Bosch (New York): A fiery exponent of the progressive sound often referred to as the most awesome Salsa band to dance to, listen to and watch in a concert setting, Bosch masterfully portrays his life experiences and musical inspiration creating Salsa for the next century.
