Son Nuestro

Once a mariachi, always a mariachi. This Oakland-based couple first met in a mariachi, where their shared love of this beautiful rich Mexican music grew as they performed together, and quickly became a central part of their life. The songs they perform have been passed down through generations. They proudly and with full hearts share their favorite rancheras, huapangos, boleros, sones, with their family, friends, and community.

Great Wall Youth Orchestra

Many of the Great Wall Youth Orchestra musicians are recent immigrants or first-generation Americans, and the orchestra offers a special connection between their origins and heritage and their life in the United States, with a focus on playing Chinese musical instruments. Notable appearances include Good Morning America, Meghan Mullally Show, and the Golden State Warriors.

​

Camille Safiya: A modern renaissance woman for the people, Safiya's vocals are "an ancient horn to be discovered on the ocean floor."
