Jazz Series: Los Gatos
Los Gatos (Pete Siers–timbales, coro, percussion; Cary Kocher–vibraphone, coro; Brian Di Blassio–piano, coro; and Al Di Blassio–congas, vocals, percussion) assembled in 1997, and the concept of a small group focused on traditional Afro-Cuban rhythms has positioned Los Gatos as a consistent crowd pleaser. The band performs monthly at venues around the Ann Arbor/Detroit area and has released two CDs–Cats Got Your Tongue? and Insight. Come at 7:30 for a 30-minute salsa dance lesson before the concert!
