Here you can see Larry Harlow
Larry Harlow

On August 20 this year, salsa fans around the world received of the devastating news about the death of Larry Harlow Kahn, who was one of the most transcendental figures of the Fania All-Stars at the time and Latin music in general. There have been many artists, writers and the general public have expressed their profound regret at the departure of pianist, leaving an unforgettable legacy and a profound mark in the minds of all those who admired him throughout his career. 

According to what writer specialized in music Aurora Flores said, Harlow, also known as “El Judio Maravilloso”, marked a unique style with great ease and innovation while staying attached to his traditions. From the hand of Johnny Pacheco and Jerry Masucci, this musician became a talented producer and creator for much of the work done by orchestra La Fania, resulting an approximate of 270 recordings for other artists and a good number of hits that continue to be heard today. 

This extremely talented pianist broke down all sorts of cultural barriers during his lifetime thanks to his great talent. He reached corners he has never dreamed of and will always be remembered for his great artistic endeavors. 

Ricky Gonzalez and Angel Fernandez make donations to support the Salsa Museum

In recent days, it became known that both Ricky Gonzalez and Angel Fernandez have met with the director of the Spanish Harlem Salsa Gallery Museum, Johnny Cruz, to bring him with some highly valuable objects. Gonzalez is Marc Anthony‘s pianist and Fernandez is the musical director of his orchestra, so both musicians have much to contribute to the historic museum presided by Cruz. 

In the particular case of González, he plans to offer some jackets that were worn by the famous Puerto Rican singer, while Fernández will offer a trumpet played at one of the many concerts offered by the boricua and his team. Together with the already mentioned objects, both artists pledged to collaborate in every way necessary to continue donating valuable acquisitions to the cultural institution.  On the official Facebook account of Johnny Cruz, the president of the museum can be seen in the company of both musicians and some thanks from his part to both of them for supporting the Spaha Salsa Gallery, as this place is also known.

El Patio Grand Opening
The opening of El Patio Wynwood

The spectacular city of Miami has exceptional places where visitors from anywhere in the world can go and have fun without major difficulties, especially if they come from any Latin American country. Not by chance, this is one of the cities with the highest number of Latinos in the United States. Of course, entertainment venues were going to take this major detail into account when creating the schedule of activities that they have to offer to their clients.   

That is where the incredible El Patio Wynwood comes in, whose main attraction is good music and dancing, although the place is suitable for people of all ages and tastes. This disco and restaurant has areas, drinks and other things for all tastes. Besides, you can enjoy a wonderful visual display, which will leave the lucky ones who attend this venue in awe. 

One of the biggest attractions of the venue is the lively music that can be enjoyed in its facilities, both played by guest artists or recorded by the staff of the place to be played depending on the day, the time and the situation. Just as is the case with many bars and nightclubs of this style, hosts always try to provide the most lively atmosphere for attendees through theme nights and other types of events such as happy hours, whose protagonists are usually talented DJs who deploy their full repertoire to the delight of party people from that night.

Theme nights and DJs

In addition to the most entertaining theme nights taking place here, we cannot fail to mention Las Fabulosas consisting of shows performed by all-female artists, who show why they have so much respect in the sphere of DJs. Among some of the talented women who have come to perform at El Patio Wynwood include Laura Castro, DJ Polen, Marcela Reyes, Negra Fabulosa and many more. Additional to that, the club also offers the Latino Gang which consists of a sort of battle between salsa and Reggaeton to know which one conquers more people from that night. 

In addition to all this, music can be accompanied by the best cocktails in Miami, among which we can highlight La Flor De La Isla, Risa Salvaje, El Patio Mule, The Gentleman, Spring Gin, Bloody Bunny, Miss Chelada, Killer Bee, among others. As for the menu, diners can try dishes like chicken wings, pork rind skewers, garlic sausages to the grill, cheese boards, among other delights that visitors cannot miss. 

If El Patio Wynwood is known for something that must be its highly innovative concept. The bar area has been designed in a way so that its clientele can enjoy a spectacular blend of art, cocktails and artisan beers and the wide range of hits to accompany the above. 

All the above has resulted in excellent online reviews that show how pleased customers are with the work done by the staff of this bar and restaurant, which is definitely a compulsory meeting point for anyone who decides to visit the city of Miami, either from the United States or from any other country.

Visit Club Tropicana and have a great time!

What Club Tropicana offers

Before the lifting of many of the restrictions caused by COVID-19 in Texas, the progressive reopening of entertainment venues that were forced to close due to the pandemic has taken place. Of course, Club Tropicana could not stay out. 

Founded in the year 1999, Club Tropicana is still considered one of the favorite places for Texans to go dancing and spend a night of drinking in the city of Houston. Although the place has a wealth of attractions for people of all ages, what is most striking to the audience is the great music being played there. Predominant genres played are salsa, merengue and bachata. Of course, the vast majority of the invited artists are linked to these musical styles. 

Although the club itself provides the music heard and danced every night, it usually invites singers and groups that delight all present with their talent. Many performers have walked across this stage, but there are many others who will be more than glad to give the bar customers precious time.
