We are excited to announce our second of three Groovin' on Grovemont concert events of the season featuring Las Montañitas!
Las Montañitas brings the Andes to the Appalachians. Their music draws heavily from the Chicha Cumbia scene that emerged in Peru in the late 1960s, featuring psychedelic surf guitar tone, Afro-Colombian dance grooves and Andean inspired melodies.
Mar - vocals, charango, quena
Keith Josiah Smith - guitar, timbales
Sparrow Smith - accordion, vocals
JP Furnas - bass
Ben Colvin - saxophone, guiro
Sully Martinez - congas, bongos
Groovin’ is a free-admission outdoor concert series benefiting two Swannanoa nonprofit organizations: The Friends of the Swannanoa Library and the Swannanoa Community Council.
These events are held at Grovemont Park, adjacent to the Swannanoa Library. Bring a blanket or lawn chair, and come enjoy these free family-friendly evenings of great music and food!
A large selection of tasty and freshly prepared foods will be available for concert goers to enjoy. While the offerings are always changing, in past years attendees have chosen from such dishes as BBQ pork, smoked chicken, fried tempeh, various cold salad options, hamburgers, hot dogs, and more! Of course, Vegan and Gluten Free will be available, as well as smaller portions for the little ones. Exact food menu will be announced soon!
All proceeds go to the Swannanoa Community Council and Friends of The Swannanoa Library for the benefit of all those who use and enjoy Grovemont Park & Playground and the Swannanoa Library.
