It’s Viernes Social which means it’s time to put on yur dancing shoes and ir a rumbear! If you’re lucky enough to be in the New York City area tonight, you can head over to SOB’s to share the Plena Libre experience with me. If not, then you need to head to your local cd spot and pick up Plena Libre‘s 11th and latest cd, Evolución. Gary Núñez and his crew have put forth a dancable and musically relevant cd that stays true to the roots of Afro-Boricua music in all its forms.

Plena, a Puerto Rican musical genre rooted in Africa and agriculture, is making a comeback. While to many Ricans, like myself, the genre has always been alive, often played at house parties, the musical ensamble Plena Libre wants to liberate plena, as their name implies, and spread its good news.
San Juan , Puerto Rico based Plena Libre is touring the U.S. celebrating 11 years on the Latin music scene and their 11th CD titled Evolución, released in October of last year. This Friday, April 7th, Plena Libre will be playing two sets in New York City’s SOB’s. Muevete un poco at either the 8 pm or 10 pm set at 204 Varick Street. Tickets are $15, a bargain to pay pa’gozar!
