Las Cafeteras sprouted in 2006 as students who enjoyed free Son Jarocho classes & decided to share the magic of this folk music from Southern Veracruz with the public. Since then their sound has evolved & they've played at community centers, churches, schools, museums, parties, protests, youth conferences, theaters, festivals, weddings, & art exhibits. 

Opening for groups including: Café Tacuba’s Ruben Albarran (Hoppo!), Edward Sharpe & the Magnetic Zeros, Culture Clash, Lila Downs, Ozomatli, Aterciopelados, Zack de la Rocha (of Rage Against the Machine), La Santa Cecilia, Fool’s Gold, Pilar Diaz, Ollin, Pachamama, He’s My Brother She’s My Sister, Adanowsky, Quetzal & more. 

Returning to their roots, L@s Cafeter@s continues to support Son Jarocho lessons at the Eastside Café in El Sereno, Los Angeles. By telling their stories of life in the concrete jungle, L@s Cafeter@s strives to make their music relevant to everyday people in everyday places.
