Rebulú Group Music & Dance 4pm-5:30pm

REBULU is made up of 9 musicians and it is a band in the mold of a classic Cuban conjunto with a twist. It’s sound is a deft, tight, soulful blend of Cuban, Puerto Rican, and African diaspora grooves topped with powerful lead and harmony vocals. Rebulu’s repertoire includes classics of the genre as well as originals that bring in elements of pop and rock. Formed in early 2019, the group has already garnered an impressive buzz in the Madison salsa scene and is guaranteed to keep the dance floor hoppin.

The Earthlings 6pm-7pm

“There are so many moving parts in this band that it all seems to be moving together very smoothly. Great flow, I love your vibe. You guys are having a good time, and it always is an adventure. These songs…I love them!” – Jonathan Sutton, 105.5 Triple M Radio Madison.
