Join us at Drom Taberna with performances by Soukoustek and David Ariza! A parranda for La Canícula - the dog days of summer… we’re bringing the best tropical energy to celebrate the season. Join us at Drom Taberna with performances by Soukoustek and a hybrid PA performance / DJ set by local, Colombian-Canadian gem, David Ariza.

Our headlining band, Soukoustek - comprised of Tury Morey and Claro Torres - gives us a taste of life growing up in Cartagena, Colombia, surrounded by African influences and Caribbean culture. Their vibrant, energetic performances paint bright portraits of heritage, enriched by movement and rhythm. The group's name combines Soukous (a popular Congolese dance music genre) and Champetex (a nod to Champeta, the Afro-Colombian musical culture deeply rooted in the Atlantic coast).

You know we always bring out the OGs… for this edition, we are thrilled to welcome David Ariza, who will deliver a signature soundscape between Soukoustek’s sets. David Ariza is a Juno Award winning Colombian electronic artist, DJ, and producer based in Toronto. His sets blend deep house, techno, and Latin rhythms into immersive journeys that move between raw energy and cinematic storytelling. As always, Founders, Juana Go-gó and olasconola will share a bold blend of music to welcome you to the party.
