Live Music: Adolfo Cuellars 1000 Fuegos

Compositions that paint an Afro-Cuban face with a transplanted American smile that only finds home in a jaded heart, 1,000 Fuegos presents ancient sounds entombed by the filter of today’s modern pop perspective. All the way from Hialeah, FL – a concrete melting pot of cultures from the Caribbean, South and Central America, this music transcends our modern concept of diverse. Currently based in Portland (OR), this movement has been igniting dance floors for over six years, sharing stages with a wide range of artists from Nahko and Medicine for the People to Talib Kweli.
