What: Ozomatli – San Diego Symphony

When: Sunday August 24, 2014

Where: Embarcadero Marina Park South, San Diego

Description: By combining hip-hop, salsa, dancehall, samba, funk, garage rock, raga and more into an irresistible groove, the members of the culture-mashing party band Ozomatli have gone from hometown heroes in L.A. to U.S. State Department Cultural Ambassadors and the first band ever to give a “musical” TED talk. Also known for having a fervent political conscience, the Grammy-winning group frequently travels the world, bringing this distinctly SoCal — but universally appealing — music to places like Tunisia, Egypt, Mongolia, Jordan, Nepal and Myanmar. For this outdoor San Diego Symphony show with conductor Matthew Garbutt, Ozomatli will play old favorites as well as tunes from their latest album, Place in the Sun, as they mark their return to Ashford University’s Summer Pops concert series after a hugely popular appearance last summer.
