This year's Carnaval San Francisco headliner is ready to get festival-goers grooving to Latin rock on Sunday.
The annual festival and parade is making a return after a two-year hiatus due to the pandemic. The 10-piece band known as Momotombo SF is doing its final rehearsal at a Hayward recording studio before they take over the biggest stage.
"To be asked to play at Carnaval and to see the reaction that we're getting it's pretty exciting, and like I said I gotta pinch myself when I see the fellows that I'm playing with because this is really an honor. It really is - I mean some of these guys are so great, they've been around the world, platinum records, gold records," said Leo Rosales, who plays timbale and sings.
"I think it's very special to have a group that really represents the roots of what the mission is about headlining this festival again. So I think it's a way to reaffirm what the music's about, what the city's about, and the roots of the music," said Bill Ortiz who plays the trumpet.
