If you want to dance to live music, to the sound of one of the most recognized Latin music orchestras in the Bay Area, we recommend not missing the opportunity that Freight & Salvage offers you, by presenting the great band Orquesta in its facilities of Pacific Mambo (PMO).
As we remember, Freight & Salvage is a non-profit community arts organization dedicated to promoting public awareness and understanding of traditional music, music that is rooted in and expressive of the wide variety of regional, ethnic and social cultures of the people of everyone.
For its part, the PMO, for its acronym in English, is a Grammy Award-winning orchestra and its repertoire is loaded with contagious energy and excellent musicianship.
Tonight before starting the rhythm wheel show, a free session will be offered. Event organizers remind that with an open dance floor, a ticket guarantees entry but not seats.

This night of music and dance is scheduled for May 24 starting at 8 p.m.

Redwood City begins summer activities with tribute to Santana
From May 31 to August 30, Redwood City carries out its usual summer activities, which this year reach their eighteenth anniversary, which include concerts, movies, and many outdoor activities that are completely free.
The summer kicks off with a tribute to Santana, which seeks to faithfully recreate the drive and sound that have made Santana’s music a pillar in the history of rock music over the last five decades.
The artists that make up the band are veteran musicians who have spent decades perfecting their craft to bring you the legendary sounds of Santana. You’ll hear all the hits from Santana’s early years to today’s new favorites, and it’s all played with the same instrumentation, soul, and passion.
Among the activities scheduled for this summer, live music of various musical genres is planned every Friday night for fourteen weeks.
The tribute to Santana will be this Friday, May 31, starting at 6 p.m. at Courthouse Square, 2200 Broadway, Redwood City.
