Don Gato Latin Band at the Gazebo on July 6

The Winters Friends of the Library summer concert series kicks off with a free outdoor performance by the Don Gato Latin Band on Thursday, July 6, 7:00–8:30 p.m. at the Rotary Park Gazebo, on Main Street at Railroad Avenue, in front of the Community Center in Winters.

The Sacramento-based quintet plays vibrant Cuban music in the style of the Buena Vista Social Club—salsa, cha cha cha, and the Cuban son, along with some Top 40 classics with a Latin beat. Their music provides an audio trip to the tropics, perfect for relaxing on a summer evening.

The performance is part of the Winters Friends of the Library 20^th season of Summer Concerts at the Gazebo. WFoL has presented free outdoor concerts every Thursday in July since 1998. This year the series will continue with Big B and his Snakeoil Saviors playing swing and jazz with a western feel onJuly 13, Los Tres de Winters playing Norteño-style music on July 20, and Armstrong, Cary & MacGill playing hot swing from the 1920s, 30s, and 40s on July 27.

Everyone is invited to pack a picnic, bring a blanket or lawn chairs or sit on the grass, sip a cool drink, and enjoy some fine live music. The Friends of the Library will have delicious refreshments for sale, and all proceeds will support the Winters Library. This year’s concert series is co-sponsored by Waste Management and Oates Country Store. For more information, contact Keith Cary at kcary@dcn.org or (530) 795-3173, or visit wfol.org.
