Come say a final goodbye to staff and friends of The BSL, one of Vancouver’s finest live music venues since 1979 and home of ELECTROPICAL & FIESTA AFRICANA since 2004, as it will be closing on Dec 31st.
Look out for the new location with renewed energy and ideas in January !
But in the meantime, I would like to thank my longtime DJ partner Michael Laycock for years of sharing music and stage at The Backstage Lounge to all the percussionists that played with me (Yoro, Toto, Sacha, Alex, Raphael, Robin, Chris, Navaro, Paul, Jackito, Kurai, and many more), to Darrell Stables from the BSL and all the staff there. Special thanks to Adriana Contreras for designing the posters and flyers and Tajah Fatima Olson for the artwork.... And to all the dancers, here is an invitation for one last party at the BSL featuring Latin, African & Caribbean beats like Soukous, Cumbia, Forró, Kizomba, Azonto, Salsa, Reggae/ton, Kompa etc
