A little something about the band
Japanese-Brazilian Luciano Nakata Albuquerque - front-man for Curumin - happily mixes breezy ballads, 70s Brazilian pop, and off-kilter soul, with reggae, greasy spoon funk and hip hop. Traditional Afro-Peruvian marinera folkloric rhythms meets hip hop beats, funk, salsa and dub in Novalima's progressive, innovative sound. Get ready to dive into Latin America’s 21st century sound.

More Info
Meeting time: It starts at 8pm but expect the place to be packed so I'll probably get there 6 - 6:30ish to secure some seating. I normally like to seat in the upper area (I will post in the forum of exactly where later).
What to Bring: Wine, cheese anything you want I've been posting these for the last 3yrs and it's always nice to share w/ others. Remember you are outdoors so please keep the glass at home there's very nice plastic wine glasses nowadays. Don't forget the camera and maybe a light jacket the winds sometime pickup created by all the tall buildings surrounding the area.
Parking or Metro Fees: See below.
