Media Alert
WHO: Broadcast Music, Inc.® (BMI®) and Levitt Pavilion are set to present its “Summer Nights” free concert series to include performances by:
• Davíd Garza: Critically acclaimed Rock-Pop-Latin infusion artist, who was indie long before it was cool to be indie.
• Irene Diaz: Soulful-sounding Latin singer/songwriter and pianist who has received national acclaim.
• Nina Díaz: Lead singer for Girl in a Coma and hailed by NPR as “one of the two or three most exciting, scary-good vocalists in rock today.”
• Elsten Torres: Two-time GRAMMY award-nominated, prolific, multiple chart-topping singer/songwriter.
• Ceci Bastida: Breakout singer/songwriter who puts the Latin in LA.
• Raquel Sofia: Known for her backing vocals for Shakira and Juanes, she is now taking center stage.
• Master Blaster Sound System: DJ Dusty, Brian Ramos and Cecy Treviño are the creative center of their cumbia crunk/roots norteño/deep club sound.
• Niña Dioz: Often compared to M.I.A for her energetic stage presence, this rap phenom has been hailed as refreshing.
WHAT: The four concert-series is free and open to the public. July 11 and August 8 editions will take place at Levitt Pavilion located in Pasadena, while the July 25 and August 15 installments will be held at Levitt Pavilion MacArthur Park. All performances commence at 8:00 p.m.
