Saturday, July 26, 2014 @ 7:00pm
The Festival of Summer Nights- Outdoor Family-Friendly Multi-Cultural Music & more presents: DIEGO’S UMBRELLA, on July 26 @ 7:00pm at the Osher Marin JCC.
The third of 5 consecutive Summer Saturday nights of live music, dinners, cocktails, picnics, dancing, kid zone, playground and more continue on July 26 with a unique band that captures California’s cultural multiplicity with enthusiasm, humor and decadence.
These urban, gringo mariachis have performed more than 1,000 live shows at clubs and festivals across the U.S. and Europe. The band’s lively, unforgettable, heavy-hitting stage show has visually and aurally captivated diverse audiences from all walks of life. Influenced heavily by flamenco, klezmer, Eastern European and Latin sounds, Diego’s Umbrella has introduced the world to a new kind of popular music: Gypsy Rock. They possess a pop sensibility and punk rock energy with sounds reminiscent to that of Gogol Bordello, DeVotchKa and Muse.
The group, nearing the release of their 4th album, has been featured in major motion pictures, network television and numerous documentaries, in addition to countless worldwide radio and print appearances.
There are two kinds of people in this world: those who love Diego's Umbrella and those who soon will. Celebrated as San Francisco's Ambassadors of Gypsy Rock, these world renowned entertainers have created an irresistible cocktail that is entirely their own.
