Salsa Explosion with DJ Jimmy
Sat Dec 10, FCC Phnom Penh
Spawned by the 1920s folkloric Son Cubano, which fuses Spanish guitar with African rhythm and translates literally as 'Sound of Cuba', Salsa dancing swept the globe within a decade. And, like the sauce from which it derives its name, it remains one of the spiciest today. "Salsa is quite an intimidating dance," says Jimmy Campbell, the Salsa Explosion host. "It's very sensual; very exciting. There's a lot of energy around it. It's not like modern dance, where people don't even look at each other and there's no passion." Dancing starts at 8:30 p.m. No cover.
LIVE: Ukes of Hazard
Sat Dec 17, FCC Phnom Penh
The Ukes of Hazard is not your typical ukulele act. To begin with, the duo's music has a psychedelic feel to it. And there's nothing typical about the band's shows, either, so it's anybody's guess what will unfold when the Ukes take to the stage for their Christmas gig Dec 17. "So far there has not been a typical show. To be frank, many people have asked us 'What exactly IS a Psycho-Ukulele Xmas?'," reflects James Speck, who forms one half of the duo with Dylan Walker. "All I can say: That is what we will all find out together on Dec 17 at FCC".
