It’s a festival run by local artists, for local artists--and the communities they represent. The 2019 festival offers a full day of music, dance, and workshops on two stages. Festival-goers can join in a barn dance, freedom sing or banjo workshop, and take in traditions from Mexico, Puerto Rico and across the U.S. The day culminates in a concert by Las BomPleneras (an all-female bomba y plena band), Mariachi Sirenas (Chicago’s only all-female mariachi band) and old-time and country blues master Hubby Jenkins (formerly of Carolina Chocolate Drops). They had me out a few years ago and I had a GREAT TIME it was so eclectic and interesting. Make it happen if you can! It’s all day this Saturday, September 14th. Tickets are only $20 at the door or $15 if you buy yours in advance at https://singandstomp.com/, which I have linked in the show notes.Support Get Up in the Cool
