The HEINEKEN TRANSATLANTIC FESTIVAL rolls into South Florida at the end
of April each year, bringing along a dazzling series of world music
events that are considered some of the best of the year by local fans
and critics. Highlighting the music of Europe, Africa, Latin America and
the Caribbean, the small venue concerts include traditional rhythms and
electronic music performed by classic musicians and DJ/producers who
sample and mash up beats and riffs from across the globe. These talented
musicians join some of Miami's best performers on local stages each
year.
Heineken Beer brings together a crossroads of talent from the world's
capitals and utilizes Miami as a showcase for performers like Seu Jorge,
Juana Molina, Ojos de Brujo and Medeski Martin & Wood. At the same time,
the host city boasts some particularly talented folks who embody "The
Miami Sound" including DJ Le Spam and his All Stars, Suenalo Sound
System and Locos por Juana who have joined groups like Agape in rounding
out past festival performances.
Fans of world beats can experience this unique festival at the Midtown
nightclub Bardot, at the North Beach Bandshell and at the Sand Bar
Lounge. Sponsored locally by the Rhythm Foundation, schedules and
ticketing information will be posted on the official Heineken website
and the Rhythm Foundation FaceBook page where smaller local events are
often promoted. Follow the foundation on Twitter @RhythmFoundatio (no
