One of the most legendary bands to hail from San Diego, the B-Side Players have spent the last three decades establishing a reputation as one of the most eclectic, genre-defining bands of their day. The nine-member band can hardly be described using typical genre conventions, blending elements of funk, rock, jazz, and hip-hop with gritty street samba, Cumbia, and other sounds common in Latin America. Their Dec. 7 performance at UC San Diego’s Park & Market marks their final show of the year and celebrates the last 30 years of their prolific career. The 90-minute performance will also feature an intimate Q&A with the audience, during which fans can hear unheard insights about the band’s history.

You could compile an exhaustive list of genres that Mitchum Yacoub’s music might be categorized in, but the San Diego-based multi-instrumentalist’s sound can best be described with one word–originality. Mitchum layers strong, repetitive grooves with his flair for Afro-Latin percussion alongside vibrant horn lines to create undeniably electric music that doesn’t just move the body, but moves the soul. Mitchum’s diverse sensibilities are a perfect match for Divina Jasson’s eclectic approach to music, allowing the duo to create energetic and infectious music that sits at the intersections of Afrobeat and Cumbia. You can experience their unique sound for yourself when they perform at UC San Diego’s Park & Market on Saturday, Nov. 16 at 7 p.m. Tickets start at $25.
