CON BRIO Watch This Video


Xandra Corpora's stunning vocals soar over a thick stew of soul, jazz and funk. Her multi-layered lyrics are enhanced by a commanding vocal presence and a powerhouse band that combines tasteful, innovative composition with ferocious improvisation. They can take a groove and wring it dry, then stop and turn on a dime.

Con Brio's live shows are intense, fun and captivating, and have earned them a loyal and quickly-growing following among fans of every genre. They have the rare ability to command the entire atmosphere of any room, leaving audiences simmering in the feeling that they are part of something really big, really sultry and utterly satisfying. "Totally simmering soul, freaky funk, and brooding blues."

*LOCURA*

LOCURA Band Website


With a diverse collage of soul, rock, funk...
Direct from San Francisco's fertile music scene, LoCura taps into the diverse sounds that have a rich history in the Bay Area, weaving them together in an uncanny way to reveal their common roots. Mixing Flamenco with Reggae and Cumbia with Ska through contagious rhythms and multiple languages, their music takes you on a ride through a day in the emerging globalized experience where the movement of people and ideas are in constant flux. Reflecting lead vocalist Kata's own experience of growing up Spanish American in Spain, Italy, and the U.S., LoCura's music rides the borders of identity and migration piecing together a mosaic of our myriad cultures and experiences. In Spain the expression "Ida y Vuelta" is used to describe certain styles within Flamenco that made a "round-trip" from Spain to Latin America, mixing with music from the African slave and Indigenous populations. With this idea of music traveling and music as creative resistance, LoCura takes the trip back again mixing it up with their own Califas Flamenkito, Reggae, and Cuban Son styles. Moved by the music that crosses borders and takes root in different lands, LoCura draws from this creative "rebel" spirit to cultivate the cures passed on from our ancestors.
