Las Cafeteras create a vibrant musical fusion with a unique East LA sound and a community-focused activist message. Their Afro-Mexican rhythms, diverse instruments & inspiring lyrics about love & the fight for justice is infectious.  They remix  traditional Son Jarocho sounds with Afro-Caribbean marimbol and cajón beats, poetry in English and Spanglish, and instruments like jarana, requinto, a donkey jawbone and the Tarima. Just back from their most recent tour, they join Music FridayLive! this Friday just before their big homecoming show at the famous El Rey Theater is Los Angeles. We are delighted to talk with them on Music Friday Live.

Jill Jack is a consummate force on stage, powering through country, rock,  folk and blues, leading the band and making friends with the audience.  There is nothing like a Jill Jack’s performance – you get all of her – her, high range voice, her high-octane music, her blinding smile and lots of conversation.  She has played with Bob Seger,  Emmylou Harris, Chris Issak, Loretta Lynn and many other greats.  She is playing the West Coast this week, headlining a show in Los Angeles at the famous Molly Malone's.   And she is active in her Detgroit community and even in Haiti making lives bvetter.Jill Jacks is on tour, on point and on fire, and we so happy she will be on Music FridayLive!
