Here is a night we recommend you check out while we’re away on our holidays…
Radio Groovalizacion and Mantua Festival present Bomba Estéreo in concert Friday 7th August 2009. For their first appearance in Ireland they will perform at the Button Factory, Temple Bar Music Centre, Curved Street, Dublin 2. Ticket prices are 12 Euros at the door. Doors open at 7.30pm.

Bomba Estéreo is Bogotá’s newest and most promising band. They are amongst a group of young artists coming from a new wave of music inspired by the streets of the Colombian capital. Their music merges Afro-colombian rhythms from the Caribbean coast such as Cumbia, Bullerengue and Champeta with electronic sounds, reggae and hip-hop producing an explosive fusion. BombaEstéreo’s invigoration shows are a blend of infectious electro beats and live instruments in which Colombian folklore is always present. No doubt that band members Liliana Saumet (vocals), Simon Mejia (bass, sequences and Keyboard), Diego Cadavid (percussion) and Kike Egurola (Drums) will raise the roof to its highest. So do not miss the chance to see this exclusive concert, organised by Groovalizacion and Mantua, as part of their summer tour across Europe and the USA.
