Live at the Lake: Rio Bamba

Des Plaines Park District, Community Contributor

Join us for an evening of free entertainment under the stars. Bring a blanket and a picnic and enjoy the music of Rio Bamba.


For six years, Rio Bamba has performed at a wide variety of jazz and world music venues, parties and festivals. Their sound is a unique blend of Bossa Nova, Samba, and American and Latin Jazz played by world-class musicians. The group plays standards and original music from classic and swinging jazz to Brazilian Samba, and gets everyone moving to their irresistible rhythms.
