Los Compas is a band of seasoned pros playing the hardest hitting salsa in San Francisco. Although many musicians and singers have passed through its ranks, Los Compas is by no means a “pick up” band. Most members have 10-15 years of association with the group. For 5 years, the band’s now legendary run at the waterfront’s Pier 23 made that bar “the place to be” on Friday nights. Whether an intimate 4 piece setting or a nightclub sized 10 piece band, Los Compas consistently functions as a crisp, energetic, tight-knit unit.
“One of the hardest working bands on the San Francisco scene, Los Compas is led by Miguel Govea – one time member of the seminal Chicano New Song band, Los Peludos – who has shaped a sound that embraces the diverse musical cultures that make up the Bay Area Latino community. Cumbias, merengue, Tex-Mex, salsa, Latin jazz…”no se rajan” (they do not shrink) from any musical challenge…” (Latin Beat Magazine)
