JosEé Najera and
The Bernal Beat
Authentic neo-classic, post-modern, original San Francisco Mission District Latin funk.
Straight outta the streets of San Francisco, The Bernal Beat is born of Mission neighborhood block parties, with flavors steeped in the musical melting pot of the Bay Area. Their distinctly latin grooves draw you in with undeniably funky hooks. And it’s no wonder — collectively, José Najera and his band have an unparalleled musical pedigree spanning the essential Bay Area music scenes over the past 50 years. Rooted in classic Latin grooves, you’ll hear the band’s jazz, funk, rock, blues, soul, reggae, hip-hop, psychedelic, African and zydeco experiences emerging at various times during a performance.
But the real magic is in the band chemistry and compelling live performance.
