Join us in the park every Friday night in April and May for live music, dancing and activities! Each week features a different band or artist, showcasing a diverse range of genres. Friday, April 17 | 7 PM Veterans Park Expansion - Depot St. at Ave. C Downtown Elgin, TX Performance by Money Chicha Money Chicha is an Austin, Texas based group featuring members of the Grammy-award winning Latin orchestra Grupo Fantasma and its offshoot funk outfit Brownout which performs a fuzzed-out, reverb-drenched and percussion-heavy style of music inspired by the sounds of Peru and Colombia in the 60’s and 70’s. This style of music, sometimes called “Chicha” music, is known for its infectious Latin beat, its psychedelic, surf guitar pyrotechnics and its melodies influenced by the indigenous culture of the Andes mountains. The group’s sound is derived from the exhilarating syncopations of congas, cowbell and timbales, the gritty tones of combo organs and vintage synthesizers, effects-laden guitar melodies, insistent basslines and a healthy dose of trippy, psychedelic effects. Money Chicha is a modern translation of this South American musical style interpreted by highly skilled veterans of America’s most vibrant music town. In their capable hands the “Chicha” genre takes on a new and unique character, guaranteed to move one to both dance and listen, entranced by the undeniable rhythms and virtuosic displays of musicality. FOOD TRUCKS, VENDORS & ACTIVITIES Be sure to bring your lawn chairs, drinks, snacks and friends! BAND SCHEDULE for April & May: >> https://elgintexas.gov/187/Music-Series @moneychicha
