Get in the Groove with the Mambo Surfers

This Saturday we welcome back the Mambo Surfers at 10:00.

The  group received the “Ethnic/World Group” of the Year Award  from the Wisconsin Area Music Industry (WAMI) in 2000. Their genre-bending original music

combines influences of the blues, Bollywood, Native American chants, reggae, and rock ‘n’ roll.

    The group includes:

Ron Jones (guitar/vocals), Native American of Hochungara descent, whose lyrics reflect his storyteller’s tradition. He is fluent on guitar and other stringed instruments as well.

Saji Villoth (guitar/vocals), developed his lyricism and sense of melody listening to various types of music  growing up in south India and Kuwait.

Darrell Williams (bass, vocals), brings a background of gospel, funk and jazz as well as solid bass and vocals and an exuberance on stage.

Lon Coulliard (drums/percussion)  brings inventive drum and percussion playing to the group. He often makes the instruments he needs to produce the sounds he is seeking.
