LIVE AT THE BELLY UP features all the excitement of sold-out live concerts from the comfort of your own home. In the premiere episode of Season 6, two-time Grammy Award-winners Ozomatli bring a dance party with a mix of Latin, hip hop, funk, reggae and rock as diverse as the cultures of their Los Angeles hometown.
The band first formed at a community center in the mid-90s writing songs that can deliver messages about social issues, farm workers rights, immigration reform to simply celebrating life and a the good times. For this show the six-piece band is joined by long-time friend and collaborator Chali 2na (Jurassic 5) for vocals on songs such as “Saturday Night” and “Cut Chemist Suite.”
