OMGHSTUBC

Just found out probably one of the coolest things that's happened to me in a long time: one of the bands I play in is opening up for Maraca at Saskatoon Jazz Festival on July 2nd.

If you've never heard of Maraca, that's fine, they aren't played on public radio in Canada or most of the US, but they are an absolutely wicked band from Cuba. I was right pissed that I was going to miss them in my home town on June 30th when they were playing, but now I'll see them live anyways, maybe even finagle my way in with the band and have some drinks, shoot some shit. Infinitely cool.

Congratulations, O! And, while it is true I've never heard of that band, to put it into perspective, I'm not entirely sure why I think I've heard of Saskatoon.

Sounds like it is gonna be a great time, though.

I believe they have some sample mp3s on the Maraca site.

There are no sample bits of Saskatoon to check out though.
