Bailamos! Latin Dance Party Featuring el Movimiento at Nashville Jazz Workshop

The Nashville Jazz Workshop is excited to announce "Bailamos (We Dance)!", a Latin Dance Party featuring El Movimiento on Sunday, May 4 at 6pm. This is the first event of its kind at NJW, and we welcome you to join us in the upcoming festivities!

El Movimiento also includes Paul Horton on keys, James DaSilva on guitar, Dan Eubanks on bass, and Marcus Hill on drums....
