Description

When this San Diego-based bevy of pretty boys from the Latin American musical continuum invade Moe's Alley, they bring an intoxicating fusion of vivid Spanglish texts and hip-shaking Afro-Mexican beats to the stage. As energetic as Manu Chao but significantly less manic, the septet's global funk is remarkable for its catchy permutations of arching horns, matter-of-fact guitar and mesmerizing percussion. In addressing race, romance and rhythm, traces of reggae resonate in the B-Side Players' dynamic sound, and the music mirrors the lyrics urging the listener to dance, dance, dance.
