Latin funk, Afro-Caribbean jazz, and vinyl sounds from across Latin America and the Hispanic diaspora take center stage at Live En La Playa, returning for its second year on Saturday, November 14, at Lummus Park in Miami Beach.
Presented as part of the City of Miami Beach's OnStage! concert series and Hispanic Heritage Month programming, this free, open-air celebration brings together live music, DJs, a vinyl record fair, and interactive art activities.
The evening features performances by Miami favorites Spam Allstars and Tony & The Kings. Led by DJ Le Spam, Spam Allstars blend Latin rhythms, funk, and electronic music into their signature sound, known as “electronic descarga.” Tony & The Kings bring their own mix of Afro-Caribbean jazz, adding another layer to the evening's musical lineup.
Keeping the music flowing throughout the event are DJ Mr. Brown (Aaron Brown) of Miami Is an Island, along with Travis Acker and Lula Rios of Tiki Tumbao Records, showcasing a diverse selection of sounds rooted in Latin American and Caribbean musical traditions.
The Miami Is an Island Record Fair will bring together vinyl vendors offering records from across Latin America and the Hispanic diaspora, giving music lovers an opportunity to discover and dig through a wide range of sounds. Attendees can also join Cut and Destroy for a hands-on art activity creating heritage-inspired pin buttons.
Presented by the City of Miami Beach OnStage! program in partnership with Miami Jazz Booking, Live En La Playa is free with RSVP. Guests are encouraged to bring a blanket, settle in on the lawn, and enjoy an evening of music, records, art, and community under the Miami Beach sky.
