• 8 - 9:30 p.m. - The Boogaloo Assassins take to the stage and fill the Plaza with traditional Latin son/son-montuno/guaguanco/cha-cha-cha/Latin boogaloo/Latin soul, blues and descargas for all to enjoy and dance the night away.

Formed in Los Angeles from the ashes of the rock-steady machine Ocean 11, Latin-funk pioneers Five Degrees of Soul, ska stalwarts See Spot, Chris Murray Combo and roots reggae monsters the Expanders, the Boogaloo Assassins are here to get down Spanish-Harlem style with a sound that is heavily indebted to the classic sounds of New York's late '60s/early '70s Latin music explosion.

Segerstrom Center for the Arts applauds Kia, Official Automotive Partner of the Center, and United Airlines, Official Airline of the Center.
