KUT90.5/KUT.org and Bemba Entertainment present World Music Night every Tuesday night at Momo’s, giving Austin a chance to connect with cultures from all over the world through music.

Each week there are multiple artists that allow for a more diverse music experience. All of the artists are local musicians that have backgrounds in other cultures. 

First to take the stage is Arthur Yoria who has released EPs in both English and Spanish and has had many of his songs featured in film and TV. Yoria has toured extensively in the U.S. as well as internationally. Live he combines guitar and vocals with samples, loops, and digital effects. The tracks that are heard live are recorded immediately on stage and are then played under the current live track until that track too becomes a background layer.

Second on stage is Manga Rosa;  a band envisioned and created by Singer Sarah Altoé and Guitarrist/Songwriter Frank Almendra with the intention of bringing a variety of Brazilian rhythms and beats to their own creative light and treat them with the duo's modern arrangements and musicality. On longer live sets, besides their original material, they play lots of versions of all kinds of Brazilian music ranging from the traditional to the contemporary, everything seasoned with their own musical spices and tastes on a blend that becomes as delicious and juicy as the fruit they are named after.

Last to take the stage is a group formed by Luiz Coutinhu, who was born in Rio de Janeiro. Coutinho currently has initiated his own interpretation of world music and dancing with The Batikum using his Brazilian influence with many different styles of music from Africa, South American, Central Americal, the Middle East, and Europe.

The show starts at 8pm. with the last performer going on at midnight. General admission tickets cost $5, and student tickets cost $3 with a student ID. Momo’s Club is located at 618 West 6th Street.

Bemba Entertainment produces and promotes unique events centered on multiculturalism.
