WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU VISITED MISSION SAN JUAN CAPISTRANO?
If you haven¹t been to Mission San Juan Capistrano lately, now is the time to go.
For so many, the Music Under the Stars (MUTS) concerts at the Mission are the best events of the summer. The night is filled with family and friends getting together, dancing and eating under the open warm summer sky with good music energizing the revelers. So don’t miss out! There are only two concerts left that are not already sold out:
• Saturday, July 25–THE DEREK BORDEAUX GROUP: Motown, Soul & R&B, the Right Way.
“A voice that “melts” combined with a dance-energy that moves you. His band has the bonafide chops to pull off any of the classics from Motown, R&B, Blues, Soul or Jazz Standards…and they do it right. http://www.derekbordeaux.com/derek_bio.html
• Saturday, August 22–ALTURAS: Music of the Andes
From the heart of South America, Alturas brings to life the rich heritage of the Inca and Aymara Cultures. Colorful native costumes and unique Andean instruments which are handmade from armadillo shells, llama skins and various hollow reeds, which makes their presentation both authentic and entertaining. www.alturasmusic.com
