Cuban Salsa | SF’s Yerba Buena Gardens Festival 2022 (May 7 – October 29)

Violin phenomenon Anthony Blea’s band is a sensational and innovative take on the traditional Cuban charanga ensemble, incorporating trombone and trumpet into the mix for good measure, and for great dancing. Come early for dance lessons.
