UPDATE: This tour unites Issac with legendary conguero Denis "Papacho" Savón and his son Issacito, who's been in the US playing piano with the Pedrito Martínez Group.

Issac Delgado is bringing back the great band that played SF JAZZ this summer for two nights (Mon. the 2nd & Tues. the 3rd) at Berkeley's Freight & Salvage, and Wednesday the 4th at Santa Cruz's Kuumbwa Jazz Center. There will be free dance lessons with the incomparable Ryan and Sidney (Rueda con Ritmo) at Freight & Salvage beginning at 7:00.
