If you're looking for something different to do on your Saturday night,  Canarian - Catalan group entitled Arepa Funky just arrived from Barcelona and will be playing at the Bar Plaisir, Calle Heraclio Sánchez (see map), 27, (parallel to the Avenida La Trinidad, where the tram terminates), in La Laguna.

Saturday, April 4th, starting at 22:30. Entrance FREE.

It was the name of the group that caught my eye - Arepa being a bread made of corn originating from the northern Andes in South America and made popular in the Canary Islands through emigration / immigration to / from Venezuela ...

Quite what that has to do with Funky music in general or this band in particular, however, remains a complete mystery to me. If someone would explain?

Anyway, the blurb says they have an ample repertoire of jazz, soul, blues or  experimental music, among other genres and at their MySpace page, you can hear for yourself before you invest the time, but I think you'll agree that they have an excellent tight and musically accomplished sound.
