Today is Salsa Sunday at the Mountain View Art & Wine Festival

Today is “Salsa Sunday” at the Mountain View Art & Wine Festival (September 13) on the Linked-In Concert Stage in Civic Center Plaza.

“Salsa Sunday” starts off on high heat with the Pacific Soul Band, the Bay Area’s premier party group. The 10-piece lineup includes six singers who deliver funk, soul, R&B, old school, pop, Top 40 and today’s hits with unstoppable energy.

Driven by a masterful rhythmic percussion section, Orquestra Borinquen is a 10-piece powerhouse of talent that has set the Bay Area salsa scene on fire. With a 4-piece horn section reminiscent of Tower of Power and Earth, Wind & Fire, these music masters move seamlessly between salsa dura and salsa romantica with complete authenticity. Come and enjoy their wide-ranging artistry.

Keep the party going with the dance-oriented rhythms of Ruckatan Latin Tribe. The 7-piece Latin and Reggae-fusion band delivers rich feel-good songs that will melt all your cares away with their unique blend of Latin, Caribbean and World beats.

The Bay Area’s best festival is a vibrant multicultural celebration featuring 600 professional artists and craftmakers showing exceptional handcrafted wares, stellar live music on stage and street throughout downtown with headliners Ruckatan and Orquesta Borinquen heating things up on “Salsa Sunday”, “Wine Haven, Taste of the Mountains Passport Days” premium wine tasting tent sponsored by the Santa Cruz Mountains Winegrowers Association, the “Comcast Pigskin Party Lounge” with football and baseball on the giant screen TV, festive food and drink with premium wines, microbrews, sangria and margaritas, artisan specialty food purveyors, an organic and green products showcase, health and wellness displays, home and garden exhibits, sensational young performers strut their showstopping stuff on the “Mountain View’s Got Talent” Community Stage, and action-packed Kids’ Park with ultra thrilling bungee jumping, wild and wacky waterballerz, super cool temporary body art, face painting and hula hooping fun.
