Three interesting Jazz events took place in Chicago over the weekend; you can read about them and see photos here. 

Durante los meses recientes, Bill Tilford había estado trayendo grabaciones actuales y recientes hechas en Cuba y las hechas por cubano-americanos al show de Frank Camacho, Sábados de Fiesta.  Ellos tambien habían entrevistando a músicos cubanos y cubano-americanos. A partir del Domingo, 7 de septiembre de las 2 a las 4 pm hora de Chicago (1900-2100 TUC) en WCEV 1450am, un nuevo show, Domingos Felices, seguirá el mismo formato basico con la música cubana actual, entrevistas, chistes etc. Se puede escuchar el programa (en español) via Internet. Ellos también pondrán otra música latina, pero la música cubana actual recibirá un énfasis especial.

Yoshi's Oakland has finally booked a Cuban act again and it's a great one - AC Jazz Project (can we do something about these generic band names?) - with Josiel and Yosmel, who have been tearing it up with everyone since staying in the US after the Maraca tour, plus Calixto Oviedo and a  highly-touted pianist named Fermín Sinfontes. It's an early show at 7:30 tonight, Aug. 30. See you there.

In other news, what are they putting in water in Sweden?
