La Última
Welcome Curuyé in LA
Welcome to Kay Torres of Curuyé in LA! Curuyé in LA can be found under Reports above, or better yet, just look under New Stuff/Lo Nuevo, directly to the right. Whenever there's an update to any of our reports it will show up there. You can also simply type timba.com/reports/la into any browser for the latest Cuban events in SoCal.
The LA scene is really picking up, with Charanga Habanera, Van Van, Rumbanquete, and others scheduled in the next couple months.
Our goal is to eventually have a section like this for every city, so it's a great step forward to finally have Los Angeles covered.

link | almost certain |
| May 5-6 | Manolito y su Trabuco |
Yoshi's SF | looks good I have tickets |
| May 7 | Charanga Habanera | Sportsmen's Lodge | they say it's on |
| May 8 | Charanga Habanera | Café Cócomo | only ad I've found |
| June 14-15 | Los Van Van | Yoshi's SF | looks good I have tickets |
| June 16-17 | Los Van Van | Yoshi's Oakland | looks good I have tickets |
CORRECTION:
Revé & Charanga CANCELLED only in SF
Currently Confirmed Charanga Habanera dates
Currently Confirmed Revé dates
ADDITIONALLY:
Sportsmen's Lodge in Los Angeles is advertising Charanga Habanera for May 7
From this point I will only report concerts in the United States as being "advertised".
Pepito in Oakland - Friday Night
with Carlos Caro and Jesús Díaz
Pupy alumnus Pepito Gómez makes his third trip to the Bay Area tomorrow (Friday) night at Club Antón, right around the corner from Yoshi's in Oakland's Jack London Square district.
Pepito not only sang with Pupy, but wrote some of his best songs, including Un poquito al revés, containing the title coro of Pupy's epic Tranquilo que yo controlo, one of the best albums of recent years. As always, the lovely and talented Ariacne Trujillo will be the pianist and musical director and this time the rhythm section will consist of Bay Area monsters Carlos Caro and Jesús Díaz. Between sets, it will be Walt Digz, a fabulous timba DJ who always embarrasses me by playing some absolutely brilliant track that I haven't heard, forcing me to sheepishly ask what it is. Let's try to sell this thing out so we can keep shows like this coming! Click here for advance tickets.
