See Viva &The Reinforcements perform for the last time before Viva's #EastCoastTour2017 in this historic triple bill spectacle featuring Latin rhythm all-stars Primo Cubano and those bad boys of salsacore, el malo!

Viva, the world-traveling jazz vocalist & bandleader, departs for New Orleans to premiere her new album, "Have You SEEN This Woman?" in February, performing along the way in Boston, NYC, DC, North Carolina, Georgia, and beyond! More information is available at vivasensation.com.

The successful cabaret-style musician found her inspiration on the dance floor at Primo Cubano shows and has performed and recorded with several of the salsa band's members (Duane Edwards, Eric P Winter, Rafael Keilt-Freyre & Marc Chillemi) in a variety of styles and languages. Primo Cubano is known throughout the region for preserving Son, the music that became synonymous with Cuba, brought to international popularity by such greats as the #BuenaVistaSocialClub.

el malo's music is insidious, vibrant and unique, infecting all who hear it with dangerous impulses. This gang of punk, jazz & metal musicians together have invented a throbbing new genre: salsacore. Of their numbers, Rion Hergenhan, Sean Bowman, Ryan Havey & Eric Ambrose have each joined The Reinforcements in turn.

TheBall is a once-per-season event unlike any other, featuring the pinnacle of #NextDecoJazz music in the beautiful ballroom of Portland House of Music and Events. Tickets for this unforgettable evening are available for just $15 in advance, $20 at the door. Visit portlandhouseofmusic.com for reservations.
