Benefit Concert for the Children of Lahaina

The proceeds from this concert will support the children of Lahaina. Headliner is Momotombo, a 10 piece group of prominent San Francisco Bay Area musicians, comprised of notable alumni of Malo and Santana with an emphasis on musicianship and improvisational creativity, with the intention of keeping the Latin Rock legacy alive through sharing their music in live concert format. Their mastery of the exciting interplay of Latin Jazz and Rock, driven by Latin rhythms and Afro Cuban beats, creates a powerful and authentic Latin Rock sound straight from the adventurous, psychedelic days of Winterland and The Fillmore. The name MOMOTOMBO SF comes from the title of the first song on 1972's Malo Dos album, "Momotombo," which is also an active volcano on the shores of Lago de Managua, Nicaragua. Also performing is the Jay Middleton Band. Middleton is a seasoned vocalist and songwriter who has been forming and performing in top level rock bands for 37 years. Songs that Jay has written have charted in the US Top 40 charts with lots of airplay across the US in the mid-90’s. With his bands, Jay has toured all across the US performing at many top clubs and venues and opening for and sharing the stage with many famous artists. Hosts and performers for the evening are Dan Ashley and Bill Bentley.
