Looks like fun. Press release:
Back for its 3rd installment of the year, Downtown After Five returns to Lexington Avenue at the I-240 overpass on Friday, August 20 from 5-9pm. The “sure to make you shake your groove thang” event lineup includes Spam Allstars with openers Nuevo Montuno Salsa Orchestra.
Spam Allstars are Miami’s hardest-working Latin band. Spam music, grounded in Latin funk, mixes horns, improvisational electronic elements and turntables with hip-hop and dub, adding touches of Pythonesque humor.
With their roots firmly planted in Puerto Rican-style salsa, Nuevo Montuno performs driving Latin music designed to move the audience to dance.
DTA5 gives back to the community by partnering with local non-profits . The charitable organization staffs the wristband sales tents and splits the money with the Asheville Downtown Association which produces the event. August’s wristband recipient is Asheville Community Theatre.
