The Music: Mambo Nocturno

Introducing Mambo Nocturno – a new event in town sparking interest and conversation by many.  Led by multidisciplinary artist Omar López, Mambo Nocturno is more than a band—it’s a movement. His vision honors mambo’s rich legacy while igniting a future where our city shines with global musical innovation. With lush brass, layered percussion, and operatic vocals that captivate, they channel the spirit of 1950s mambo while creating something entirely their own. Mambo Nocturno reaffirms that mambo remains a dynamic force to bridging cultural divides—a universal language of rhythm and romance - where every beat reminds us that we are all connected. ¡Viva el mambo!
