Una Noche de Resistencia Musical
A Night of Musical Resistance

A night which features various musical groups and one poet, with different artistic styles and influences, yet joined by one universal cause and intention… The Brass Liberation Orchestra plays in the streets of the Bay Area, carrying their instruments as weapons, while waging social warfare upon various events, protests, parades, celebrations and ceremonies with their renditions of worker inspired anthems… Bolivar Vive! plays a blend of ska, reggae, punk, and other worldly influences, inspired by the acts of various international revolutionary movements, while the group Aztlan Underground from Los Angeles mixes elements of heavy rock, hip hop, pre-Colombian, and indigenous rhythms, with lyrics that are both intelligent and defiant… The solo and unaccompanied poet for the evening is Vallejo's Rupert Estanislao, who moonlights as vocalist for the hardcore group Eskapo, spitting powerful lyrics in both English and Tagalog, Rupert speaks from the heart… And finally, closing the evening is the bilingual punk quintet La Plebe from San Francisco, who play fast and aggressive punk with horns, projecting a sincere sound that has found it's home somewhere between the local BART station, the neighborhood cantina, and the international concert hall…

A percentage of the door will be donated to the organization California Prison Focus (www.prison.org), to help in their fight for human rights and reform within the California prison system… More information about their work will be available the night of the event, as representatives will be present to answer any questions...
