Salsa Chubasco - Festive Special

A festive edition from Salsa Chubasco, a salsa band based in Manchester, staged at the Copper Bar in the Northern Quarter's Band on the Wall, a concert and performance venue.

Salsa Chubasco is a salsa band based in Manchester, with nine players from across the world. The group's name means "downpour of rain" and reflects the city that brought its members together, which the band says it is proud to represent. Its previous appearances include sold-out shows at the Carlton Club, Green Island Festival and Band on the Wall.

This Festive Special brings the band's approach to classic salsa to a December evening. The sound draws on bold horn lines, percussive grooves and syncopated bass, and the programme celebrates the beauty and tradition of Cuban music. The night is aimed at both experienced dancers and listeners who simply enjoy the music, with audiences invited to dance, sing and join in.

Band on the Wall is a concert and performance venue in Manchester's Northern Quarter, and the Copper Bar is the space where this evening takes place.
