Yogoman Burning Band
What:
On Friday, April 9th, the Mateel Community Center in Redway joins together with South Fork High School to present an evening of diverse musical styles with an emphasis on brass and percussion. The all-ages event supports art and music education programs at South Fork and will feature the popular Bellingham, WA group, Yogoman Burning Band.
Uniting people through music and dance, Yogoman Burning Band makes positive and vibrant dance music that is joyful to the heart and soul. They are a favorite band of KHUM DJs and were one of the highlights of last year’s Summer Arts and Music Festival. And, as a special treat for this debut Mateel performance, they will be joined on stage by Arcata’s top samba group, sambAmore, for what is sure to be an explosion of sound and color.
Doors open at 7pm with opening act, The Brass Menagerie, at 7:30. Admission is at the door only and is priced at $18 for MCC members/ teens and $20 general. A variety of snack foods, desserts, and refreshments will benefit South Fork High School. Beer and wine will also be available for purchase. For more information, call 923-3368 or visit www.mateel.org and don’t miss this musical extravaganza with Yogoman Burning Band, sambAmore, and The Brass Menagerie at Mateel on Friday, April 9th.
