Formed in East Los Angeles in 2005, Las Cafeteras mixes Afro-Mexican rhythms with hip-hop, Spanglish pop, R&B, funk, punk and rock - giving their tunes a fierce, raucous energy. Their mission can be sampled on such strong albums as 2012’s It’s Time and 2017’s Tastes Like L.A. But for the truest taste, the live show is the real deal with this band. They’ve played Montreal and Monterey Jazz Festivals, the Hollywood Bowl, and WOMAD. They have shared stages with Ozomatli, Los Lobos, Lila Downs, Gypsy Kings, Common, and others.
