Volcán

1:20am – 2:00am CT

Hotel Vegas Patio

This performance is part of the showcase that starts on Wednesday, March 13at Hotel Vegas Patio

Hailing from San Antonio, Tejas, on the
northern edge of Latinx America, Volcán
offers a musical vision of Latinx unity. The
group's joyful and shapeshifting sound-
tradition and innovation at once-moves
easily from its roots in psych-rock-infused
cumbia, salsa, calypso, and more.
The resulting mezcla is funky, catchy, and
danceable, anchored by an intoxicating index
of rhythms and buoyed into transcendence
by the generous spirit each band member
pours into the ritual.

Simply put, Volcán lives up to its name-a
sonic dynamo rising from la selva, a towering
and primordial force that billows and bursts
and overflows with a mystical atomic heat
that makes it impossible to sit still.
