1:00 Kalogerson Orchestra
Since 1995, Kalogerson Orchestra has performed ethnic and international live music from around the world. Callie Kalogerson (Calliope Kalogeropoulou) is a second generation Greek-American. She started playing clarinet in her father Chris Kalogerson's Greek band at age 13. Though natives of Minnesota, Calli and Chris' Greek heritage is from Arkadia, the center of Peloponnesus, and the Aegean island of Chios. Kalogerson Orchestra has performed for festivals, conventions and a variety of events in many areas of the United States and Canada.
2:00 Cafe Accordion
“Berets and Bongos” describes the Café Accordion experience. A loungy, eclectic mix, full of French flare, Latin heat and Bohemian attitude. The heart of the Café Accordion repertoire is the romantic, gypsy-influenced valse-musette. The group complements the musettes with swing, ballads, tangos, cha chas, rumbas, and cumbias to create a wonderfully varied show. They inject their music with good humor and expressive abandon. Their high level of musicianship and passion for performance makes them an entertaining concert act as well as a great dance band.
3:00 Natyvoz
Natyvoz (featuring brothers Enrique and Dennys Burga) creates music by using traditional Andean pan flutes. The musicians preserve the beauty of the traditional rhythms from Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia and Colombia and combining them with more contemporary Latin and Caribbean rhythms.
4:00 Mi Tierra Mariachi Band
Favorite romantic ballads performed with traditional Mariachi instrumentation bring a taste of the Latin community to the Taste of Lake Street.
