Mango Blue: Dance Under the Stars

Dance to your heart's content outside Beckman Auditorium on the Mall. Bring a blanket or chair, bring a picnic or purchase dinner on-site from Wheatberry Bakery Cafe and enjoy an evening of lively music and fun for the whole family.

"I just wanted to incorporate everything. Mango Blue, in a way, allowed me to bring all of these influences together. It's not a Salsa band and it's not a Funk band. It's not a Folklore band, it's not a Jazz band, but it has a lot of different elements that come in together. That's what it is."
  — band leader Alex Alvear

Mango Blue's music is as diverse as the backgrounds of the musicians that make up the band. The members of Mango Blue come from Ecuador, Italy, Israel, Puerto Rico, Colombia, Venezuela, Germany, and France.

Mango Blue, a high-powered, all original music ensemble based in New York City, blends an exciting mixture of musical styles to create a refreshing new sound in Afro-Latin and world music, through songs of celebration and social conscience.
