| El Swing – at The Portico Pleasure Palace – is where the bands and DJs love to play, and the dancers love to dance. Charanga Mariposa brings the rare and beautiful “Charanga” lineup to the stage. Expect a night of sophisticated strings, soaring flute melodies and driving rhythmic percussion as we pay homage to the legends of Guaracha, Son and Cha Cha Cha via some creative arrangements brought to life by the band’s collaborative spirit and improvisation. It’s light, it’s rhythmic, and it’s soulful. 🦋Experience the flutter of the Mariposa🦋 |
