CUATES Y CUETES
SPRING FEST 2024
​March 18 to 22!

THE SPECTACULAR SPRING FEST 2024 is here!
​

Make plans to enjoy wonderful music on the beach at Cuates y Cuetes from March 18 to the 22nd. March 21 will be all day at stage on the beach and indoor seating available as well in the restaurant/bar/venue! Let’s lift our souls together with music! This is a yearly celebration put on by the generous owners, staff and the musician friends of Cuates!

No cover charge.

Many special guests including:

Tajin on Monday at 4:00, Esau Galvan with Tatewari at 7:00, the new band of Tito Rodriguez’ new trio from Cabo San Lucas, Mexico City and Monterrey.

Caleb of Media Luna will bring us an innovative guitar performance with incredible percussionists that should send us into orbit on Tuesday at 7:00. They are followed by Arveda Jazz with Daniel Barragán, Aaron Hernandez, Benjamin Gutiérrez and Jon James for more great jazz.

​I am really excited to hear Nacho, Alex and Wen on Wednesday at 4:00–hoping for some jazz manouche! Followed by Torben Trío featuring Roberto Falcon on bass and the extraordinary Sam Dávalos on drums and Eray Farrera on Sax.

Thursday is a big day starting at 2:00 with Blues You Can Use with Denis de Crenet, Jazz Grass Band by Alex Gil. You will hear all your favorite jazz musicians here ending with a homage to Willow Brizio by so many of those who love him. Willow and Beverly were the first to bring Jazz to Puerto Vallarta.

And it goes on through Friday with so many of your favorites including the legendary Julio Cabrera at 6:00 followed by Beverly Moore with Alex Gil and Roberto Falcon and of course “de rigueur” the queen of scat, Lilliana Bruneder and friends. It all winds up with more tribute to Beverly and Willow and a jam session!

Can’t beat that!

Special Last Minute Addition to Friday the 22nd, after a Standing Ovations last Sunday, a Second Performance by Caleb Cabrera and Friends of Media Luna Kicks Off the Day at 2:00 Friday!!! See them on Tuesday and again on Friday--two completely different performances!
