La Gente Productionz is proud to announce our Cumbia Bhangra Dance Fest. This evening will feature a music and dance cross-cultural fusion of
Latin America and the Punjabi region of India and Pakistan. We will be bringing together multiple musicians, dancers, drummers and vocalists and will be composing original new music for the night that will feature a blend of Cumbia, Reggae, Hip-Hop, Salsa and Bhangra sung in Spanish, Punjabi and English. Cumbia is a genre of music and dance from the coast of Colombia that blends elements of West Africa, Spain, Native American and Middle Eastern influences of the Caribbean. Bhangra is a style of music and dance created by Punjabi immigrants in Britain blending traditional Punjab folk music with western elements of Hip-Hop, Rock and Electronic dance music.
In a world that is increasingly becoming more international in identity, rhythm, and style; LA GENTE and Dholrythms are eager to highlight the richness of our respective cultural communities and find the common links and flavor to create something entirely new and original. We are blessed that the de Young museum is opening their doors to host this experimental dance party.
-LA GENTE-
La Gente is a San Francisco international recording group led by singer-songwriter Rafael Bustamante Sarria. The group has become a fixture of the Bay Area music scene and know as one of the foremost innovators of modern Cumbia fused with Reggae, Hip-Hop Salsa and Rock. They are one of the headliners of San Francisco Carnaval 2015 and are currently in production to release their fourth album of new, original music. They have also performed all over the United Stated as well as Europe and Latin America.
-DHOLRYTHMS OF NON STOP BHANGRA-
Dholrythms Dance Company is an award winning collective in San Francisco that celebrates the beautiful and vibrant spirit of Bhangra, a traditional Punjabi folk music and dance. Highlighting the ancestral roots of Punjabi dance while pushing boundaries with contemporary influences, Non Stop Bhangra is a genre-busting elixir of North Indian Bhangra music and dance, mixed with Reggae, Hip-Hop, and Electronica. They host a monthly event called Non Stop Bhangra that is widely regarded as one of the largest, innovative international music events in the Bay Area.
