Nathan Rivera Brings His Gypsy Folk To Wild West Fest 2015

Ask Nathan Rivera to explain what he’s been up to in recent months and he can sum it up with three statements: “Lots of travel, lots of music, lots of language learning.”

Rivera, an Inland Empire native whose sweet, soulful voice and Nathan Riveraeclectic folk made him a favorite in the region and far beyond, has been traveling abroad in Europe, Mexico, and the US from coast to coast.

Join Nathan and his band at Wild West Fest on Saturday, May 16th, 2015 at Leo Carrillo Ranch from 11am – 2pm. Visit www.CarlsbadCA.gov for more information.

Quel Bordel! Continues Residency In Long Beach

QUEL BORDEL! was founded in San Diego in 2013 when a Ukrainian gypsy named Jakovich Skolnick met renowned classical violinist Regina Brown on a French Caribbean cruise line. Adding two Filipino brothers, Aaron and Allen, after meeting on a sordid fishing trip, the band came to America and enlisted drummer Nick Sitar to form an insanely energetic gypsy band of the world.

QUEL BORDEL! has built a great following in San Diego and now in Long Beach. The world-famous Auld Dubliner in the Long Beach Pike has continued this highly energetic band’s residency another year. The band has been headlining gigs at The Casbah, House of Blues Main stage, and performed at the Get Shamrocked festival with the Young Dubliners and Dublin City Ramblers – all in under a year.
