   About Safari
Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting Safari is one of the Bay Area's best-kept secrets. With sounds honed out of the S.F Mission District and led by timbalero Victor Nolasco, Safari fuses 1970s Latin rock with the flavors of New York City salsa. The songs are Bay Area dancehall favorites first performed by the bands of Benny Velarde, Carlos Federico, the Escovedo Bros., Cal Tjader and Chepito Areas but re-arranged with the Safari stamp. "Safari is a Latin Jazz group that hasn't forgotten the importance of having a good time and getting their audience to have one also. This is a fun, groove oriented band that showcases the talents of many of the bay area's veteran players. Safari equals a fun party!" - Ray Vega - Palmetto Records Recording Artist and lead trumpet with the Tito Puente Orchestra I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4
