It’s been another great day at the Market! Hope everyone got a chance to snag a few of Dave’s Apples and check out Cristina Espinosa’s designs from her band The Heated. And speaking of bands, what a great duet performance by Sang Matiz! We hope you all had a great time yesterday and for those who couldn’t make it out this week you can still check out photos of what went down yesterday! Until next time, see you at the next Market!
Music This Week: Sang Matiz!
Beautiful music will fill the streets this week with Sang Matiz, San Francisco’s own Latin Fusion band with members hailing from …. everywhere! Try Peru, Chile, Mexico, Puerto Rico, Iran and here, to name a few. Their name is a combination of two words: Sang, meaning blood in French and Matiz, meaning “Harmonious Mixture” in Spanish. The band adopted this name because of the diverse cultural and musical backgrounds of its members. Sang Matiz uses elements of Rumba Flamenca, Cumbia, R&B;, Salsa, Reggae and other World beats. Check out their show in two weeks at Yoshi’s with Diana Gameros (….guess who’s playing MCM next week!). Come hear Sang Matiz live and free, this Thursday 5pm.
