Turlock—Hispanic music lovers have the opportunity
to salsa under the stars at the Stanislaus County Fair.

            An evening concert of Hispanic music, sponsored by the Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, is the fourth ever concert targeted at lovers of latin music.  The concert is slated for Sunday, July 27, at 5 p.m.

            “The fair features music of every style—from country, to Christian, to rock to Hispanic,” said Pennie Rorex, Stanislaus County fair spokesperson.

            The concert, which is scheduled to last five hours, has four popular acts, including Conjunto Primavera, Raza Obrera, Mariachi Divas and Groupo Bugarin.

            Conjunto Primavera is one of the leading Norteno groups in the United States and Mexico and is known for their hits “Sufro Por Ti” and “4 Primaveras.”

            Raza Obrera is a 5-piece band hailing from Aguililla, Michoacan. Their recent hit album features songs such as “No Tengo Dinero” and “El Taconazo.”

            Bugarin is a five-man band with some of Mexico’s hottest young talent included in their numbers. Their recent album features fan favorites such as “Senorita Sexy” and “Solo Tu.”     Mariachi Divas are a group of multi cultural, extremely educated women who rejoice in their differences and celebrate their gift of music in performances at weddings, parties and concerts. The energetic Divas are in the process of recording a CD.
