The newest group to bless Puerto Vallarta in 2018 with its innovative and energetic presence was Media Luna. The group was created by two brothers, Caleb and Jair Cabrera from Pachuca, Hidalgo. For 2020-2021 they were performing in San Miguel de Allende and have just returned to Puerto Vallarta with an exciting line-up now that clubs are beginning to open fully again.
These young men started their career together in 2014 and have been setting their adopted homes of San Miguel de Allende and Puerto Vallarta on fire for the last several years combining gypsy rumba, flamenco, rock and huapango. It is an understatement to say they have taken Puerto Vallarta by storm with their original compositions and innovative arrangements of traditional pieces. Their shows in the cabaret at Incanto have been extremely popular. Caleb enjoys surprising his audiences with invited guests who make the show even more spectacular.
They have drawn large crowds at Cuates y Cuetes near the pier on Los Muertos Beach and were a sell out at Babel Bar on the River Cuale until the pandemic and closure of the popular venue. They have excited crowds at the elegant club Incanto on the River Cuale for several years now. The group and their guests were a tremendous hit at the first ever Bahia World Music Festival in 2019 which was produced by Jair along with yours truly. They hope to be back for 2021 if the pandemic permits!
This years line up for Media Luna is growing and features brothers Caleb and Jair on guitar accompanied by invitation by the inspiring Roberto Falcon on bass and Mariel Ramos on violin and Dani Choi on percussion. They have performances scheduled for Cuates y Cuetes Sunday, Monday and Tuesday evenings at 8:30 and at Incanto for brunch on Sundays. The group travels every month to San Miguel de Allende where they perform four consecutive shows for Paprika Restaurant and music venue (see schedule on Calendar of Events). They also put on a tremendous show at the renowned Tree House Bar and Grill on Coral Street in La Cruz de Huanacaxtle on Wednesday evenings.
