DOCTOR NATIVO - Guatemala’s Doctor Nativo is one of Central America’s most exciting new talents. His music layers Mayan spirituality, social activism, and folk wisdom over a propulsive sound combining reggae, cumbia, hip hop, and pre-Columbian instruments. His music revives the ancestors and lets them loose on the dance floor while celebrating indigenous resistance and popular empowerment with a proud assertion of Mayan identity. Doctor Nativo’s music is buoyant and danceable, but also packs a deep message: a party with a purpose.- https://www.doctornativo.com/

Rochesterfest is committed to promoting and celebrating the city of Rochester and southeast Minnesota annually by connecting people through a variety of wholesome, entertaining community events. The festival runs June 18 - 25, 2022. - http://www.rochesterfest.com/

Global Music Series - The purpose of Rochester Civic Music's Global Music Series is to foster among community members an appreciation for music, develop future audience, patrons and contributors for the arts and introduce the community to a variety of musical instruments and genres. Each of the artists engaged are meritorious Global Music artists of national or international importance. The vision of this project will enable Civic Music to contribute to a fuller understanding of diverse cultural points of view, helping citizens gain insight into how they define their broader community and themselves.
