Nearly 20 years of promoting Latin, Brazilian, African, Spanish and Caribbean music in Liverpool, England. I set up the first weekly Latin night in Liverpool, 'Un Poco Loco' in November 1993! Nice to see Juanito doing Carnival nights and Brazilian/Latin clubs/bars springing up again in Liverpool!!
Look out for more Carnival nights from Juanito and do not forget- Juanito has been for the last 20 years promoting Brazilian music and dance in Liverpool, putting on bands such as Inner Sense, Batida, Chocante, Atribo Macaca, Braziloca, Batala, Beatlife, and worked with Mangueira, Olodum, and Ile Aiye. (Apart from Africa Oye with Olodum and Ile Aiye of course).
