Cinco de Mayo party with Locarno band at Vancouver Fan Club

 Cinco de Mayo with Locarno band at Vancouver Fan Club

A Cinco de Mayo bash featuring Locarno band on May 5th 2013 5pm - 8 pm. at Vancouver Fan Club.

Locarno is the Latin project of Paperboys frontman Tom Landa. The music, like him, is part Mexican but with strong doses of Cuban Son, Folk Music, Pop and Funk. There are threads of Son Jarocho and Salsa but the songs are more edgy and contemporary than that.   (Source: excerpt from Bio of Locarno FB Page)
