"Kaleidoscopic and danceable." —The New York Times
Bomba Estéreo
Thursday, September 15, 9 pm — Iowa Memorial Union, Main Lounge
A partnership with SCOPE Productions
There's no better way to start the school year off than with a bombastic party, so go ahead and groove the night away to the electro-Colombian beats of Bomba Estéreo. By merging
the explosive dance-fusion of electronic dub and hip-hop made popular by artists like M.I.A.
and Santigold with traditional Afro-Columbian rhythms, the members of Bomba Estéreo
are proving to be an invigorating musical force to be reckoned with. Though they've been
touring worldwide—rocking ecstatic crowds at festivals including SXSW and Denmark's
prestigious Roskilde Festival—Hancher brings this eclectic ensemble to Iowa City for a hip-shaking celebration.
