REBELS WITHOUT A CAUSE… UNTIL THEY FOUND ONE
A Night of Music, Magic & Legacy
Peña Pachamama — San Francisco’s Legendary Speakeasy of the Spirit✨
Before Peña Pachamama existed…before the 35 years of concerts, recordings, and the crazy idea of opening a “peña” in San Francisco…
there were two teenagers who didn’t know each other yet.
One was sketching dreams in California, having refused to trade imagination for grades. The other was playing music and sports in the mountains of Bolivia, refusing to stop for any teacher who demanded conformity.
Both were labeled “bad students.” Both were told to be practical. Both ignored the advice.
They didn’t know each other, but they were already walking the same path.
Years later, they met ~ not to settle down, but to create music together.
Opening a peña when everyone said, “Do something normal.” Turning a forgotten speakeasy into a sanctuary for art, culture, and joy.
35 years later, they’re still rebels. Only now, the cause is clear:
To celebrate life through music, dance, and community. To keep the spirit of Pachamama alive. To inspire others to be bold, creative, and beautifully unordinary.
Welcome to their rebellion. Welcome to Peña Pachamama.
