Performance by SAN LAZARO
Ten piece Latin Mestizo outfit San Lazaro is the act that starts the party with their horn and percussion heavy salsa funk diaspora. Easily the tightest Latin outfit to come from Australia so far, their members herald from Chilean, Spanish, Indian, Mauritian, Persian, Irish, Greek and Australian backgrounds and bring a refreshing tough, hip-hop, rock and reggae infused edge to the traditional Latin sound.

Featuring some of Melbourne's finest musical talent, including celebrated young female percussionist and timbale player Nasrine Rahmani (Tumbarumba, The Oxo Cubans), outstanding Spanish language rapper and Conga player Sebastian Orellana and seasoned Chilean Vocalist, Franshesco Viran, San Lazaro are becoming a favorite of outdoor festivals all over, and with good reason.
