TapRoots w/ Mal Maïz

  • Brewbakers 48 Emerald St Keene, NH, 03431 United States (map)

TapRoots is bringing people of all walks of life and backgrounds to join together and celebrate our shared humanity through rhythm, song and dance, and are at the forefront of the World Music revival in the Pioneer Valley of Massachusetts and beyond. Born out of the desire to explore and blend a variety of interlocking musical influences, TapRoots is Deep Tracks with Deep Roots for the Body, Mind and Soul! Charting new musical territory with their unique and complex mix of funk, soul, salsa, afrobeat, reggae, afrocuban jazz, rock, samba and folkloric rhythms, TapRoots travels beyond the borders of traditional popular music, bringing the listener on a journey filled with catchy hooks, pulsing rhythms, and intricate musical motifs, synthesized into a powerful, deeply rooted, listening experience. Blazing horn lines, danceable grooves, thought provoking lyrics and a tangible sense of the spirit are braided together into a powerful unified statement of joy, community, social change and spirit!

Sonido Mal Maïz is a Vermont based musical group that explores the psychedelic side of Latin music, weaving modern and traditional rhythms from Central and South America. The story telling behind each song is designed in a poetic way, elaborating the complexity of the myths and legends that one time were part of the oral culture of Central America. Maiz “Brujo” Vargas started this group 10 years ago at the epicenter of the Vermont music scene: Burlington, selecting a group of some of the most professional musicians that Vermont has brought to the contemporary music Scene. Mal Maïz delivers explosive and complex sounds that will make you dance, celebrate and heal your soul.

The folks from the Barefoot Music Festival will be on hand with info, tickets, and Aerialist Hattie Gunther!!

Doors are at 7pm and music will begin at 730! Seating is first come first served!

Thanks to a grant from TD Charitable Foundation, this show has an Access For All option which lets you name your price (you can't buy multiples of this option at the same time, so to buy more than one ticket, it is necessary to do each additional ticket in a different transaction).
