8pm and 10pm shows.

This is the 8pm show...

The history of Son Palenque's music owes its very heart to ancestral palenquera music as well as at the musical intersection between Africa and Colombia, which took place on Colombia's Caribbean coast in the 70s and 80s and which continues today through champeta, a musical genre and dance that bears a strong African influence.
The members of Son Palenque band grew up in rural communities fixed in time, with deep musical roots, and eventually moved to the city, where they incorporated more urban influences.
