LA Santa Cecilia

2014 Grammy Award Best Latin Rock Album Hailing from the City of Angels, La Santa Cecilia exemplifies the modern day creative hybrid of Latin culture, rock, & world music, drawing inspiration from all over the world and utilizing Pan-American rhymes like cumbia, bossa nova, rumba, bolero, tango, jazz, rock and klezmer music. Their unique sound and colorful passionate performances leave audiences mesmerized. La Santa Cecilia consists of accordionist and requintero Jose "Pepe" Carlos, bassist Alex Bendana, percussionist Miguel Ramirez, and lead vocalist La Marisoul, whose captivating voice sings about love, loss and heartbreak. Their influences range from Miles Davis to The Beatles, Led Zeppelin to Janis Joplin and Mercedes Sosa to Ramon Ayala. Their common love of music and openness to all genres led them to the concept of La Santa Cecilia in 2007- named after the patron saint of musicians. In 2013, the band released their major label debut Trienta Dias (30 Days), which featured a captivating collaboration with fan Elvis Costello on Losing Game. Now, just after their GRAMMY win for Best Latin Rock, Urban or Alternative Album, the band presents their new album Someday New. The album features a heartfelt Spanglish rendition of The Beatles' iconic Strawberry Fields Forever. *Cash bar. Patrons under age 18 must be accompanied by an adult.
