Music This Week: Sang Matiz!

Beautiful music will fill the streets this week with Sang Matiz, San Francisco's own Latin Fusion band with members hailing from .... everywhere! Try Peru, Chile, Mexico, Puerto Rico, Iran and here, to name a few. Their name is a combination of two words: Sang, meaning blood in French and Matiz, meaning "Harmonious Mixture" in Spanish. The band adopted this name because of the diverse cultural and musical backgrounds of its members. Sang Matiz uses elements of Rumba Flamenca, Cumbia, R&B, Salsa, Reggae and other World beats. Check out their show in two weeks at Yoshi's with Diana Gameros (....guess who's playing MCM next week!). Come hear Sang Matiz live and free, this Thursday 5pm.

August 4th- Toshio Hirano

Hailing from Tokyo, Japan, Toshio Hirano fell in love with American Folk/Country music at an early age. Influenced by Country music legend Jimmie Rodgers, a young Toshio set out to the States to explore the origins of American Country music. After polishing his skills at Texas open mic's, Toshio moved to San Francisco where he continued to create a buzz with his guitar licks and old time country yodeling. Toshio remains appreciative of the audience he has acquired over the years and even more thankful to be able to pursue his passion to this very day. Toshio will be preforming at the Market this Thursday, at 7 p.m., be sure to come on down and prepare to be mesmerized by a real life cowboy!

Caminante, Si hay calle!

Caminantes, no hay camino, se hace calle al cantar. (Traveller, there's no path, but the street/path is made by singing). The Calle Bartlett that is! And who better to sing together our street than the Mission's one and only Francisco Herrera. Please welcome him to the market this week! Some may know Francisco from his musical magic at Parque Niños Unidos. Now we have the gift of Francisco at MCM! Bring the fam and join him for a set this Thursday - 4:15-4:45.
