Guanabanas Launches Latin Music Night

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Guanabanas Launches Latin Music Night to Celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month

Miami New Times’ Best Latin Band 2015 Electric Piquete scheduled to perform October 17

Jupiter, FL – September 29, 2015 – Named after an exotic tropical fruit native to Mexico, Central America, the Caribbean and northern South America, it was only a matter of time before the waterfront restaurant known for its delectable menu and spicy live music lineup would host a Latin night. Guanabanas, located at 960 North Highway A1A, Jupiter, FL 33477, will now be hosting a monthly evening of music from some of South Florida’s finest Latin bands, beginning October 17, 2015 with Miami’s Electric Piquete.

“This is something we have been meaning to do for quite some time,” says Talent Buyer Matt Cahur. “Reaction to Latin music is generally quite good up here, and if Electric Piquete’s performance during the late spring / early summer was any indication, this night and subsequent nights will do very well here.” Cahur’s decision to initiate Latin night on the heels of Hispanic Heritage Month was driven in part by the diversity of South Florida and the prominence of Latin American culture in the area.

Formed in 2007, Electric Piquete is a Latin funk band known for its Afro-Cuban authenticity and inventive takes on Latin and jazz standards. They released a Latin jazz single, a Latin soul single, debuted at the Virginia Key GrassRoots Festival, played Carnaval on the Mile for the sixth straight year, served as the house band at the Miss Carnaval Miami beauty pageant for a fourth time, and had a song placed on a special about Miami on CNN – all in 2015.

Guanabanas is an open air restaurant and bar with woven tiki huts and banyan trees towering overhead and hand-chiseled coquina stone pathways underfoot. The team maintains a laid-back, island atmosphere where everyone is welcome. “The diversity of the patrons continues to amaze us,” says co-owner Jeannie Van Boven. “We see people coming from all different places for all sorts of reasons, whether it’s a group enjoying ladies night out, a young family for an early dinner, a couple on date night, boaters stopping in for a bite, or a group catching happy hour after work. Our patrons tend to feel more like family.”

The October 17 performance begins at 9 p.m. and is free and open to the public of all ages. For more details about the band, navigate to www.ElectricPiquete.com. For more information about the venue, please visit www.Guanabanas.com or call 561.747.8878.
