@guitaranon.comCherry Poppin Daddies are hitting Eugene Oct 23 at WOW Hall. The ska-swing legends still deliver that jump-and-shout energy. Hit the craft beer scene beforehand, Ninkasi, Oakshire, plenty to choose from.

@grandaha.bsky.socialEveryone remembers salsa for its horns. On Buscando América (1984), Rubén Blades threw them out entirely, handing the harmony to synths and Ricardo Marrero's vibraphone. Strip the brass, keep the Afro-Cuban pulse, and it's still salsa.

@eslam00.bsky.socialHalf a century of absolute legend status. Shimi Tavori is proving why timeless talent outlasts every industry trend. The comeback masterclass nobody saw coming is rewriting the rules of the stage. 🎤🔥 #ShimiTavori #MusicHistory
@grandaha.bsky.socialBlades didn't just make salsa for dancing — he wrote crime fiction set to clave. On "Pedro Navaja," a hood and a streetwalker kill each other in a doorway, and a passing drunk pockets the gun and the cash. Salsa's first true short story.
@artbeforenoise.bsky.socialThe original lineup reunited after a cancer diagnosis and years of distance. The "mug-shot" cover earns its warmth. 🤝
