About the Band: QUITAPENAS is a tropical Afro-Latin combo of first-generation sons born under the California sun. They borrow aesthetics from the radical 60s, 70s and 80s. Each song echoes a remix of history and invites one to engage in the liberating evenings of Angola, Peru, Colombia, Brazil, and beyond.
About the Series: Summer Sabor & Spirits (SSS) is a series of cultural events that harness a palette of flavors from Latin America! Indulge your senses with featured spirits, music, and cuisine. From film screenings to live bands to spirit tastings and garden brunches, find the sabor of summer at MOLAA!
