Co-presented by De Los, singer-songwriter Daymé Arocena performs her brand of Latin pop.
Daymé Arocena's distinctive Caribbean flair drew concertgoers of all ages to to downtown L.A.'s California Plaza over the weekend. Celebrating a night of live Latin music, De Los partnered with Grand Performances on Saturday as part of its weekly summer concert series. Hosted by KCRW DJ Wyldeflower, the show featured various subgenres of Latin music through Pan Dulce's reggae-centric set and Arocena's newest venture into Latin pop.
“The music is always good, and if it’s something I don’t know, then its something I learn and expose myself to,” Moody said. “I’m glad the city puts money into events like this. It’s what makes the city worth living in. When my tax dollars are at work for this, I am all for it.” After Wyldeflower wrapped up her set, Pan Dulce, featuring Alan Lightner, kept the tropical feeling alive. Centered on the use of the steel pan, their performance brought together the sounds of reggae, cha-cha and jazz.
