Cerronato will bring its beautiful vallenato and cumbia music to El Sol y La Luna this coming Friday evening, March 18, from 7:30 to 9:30 pm.

This music is both soulful and toe-tapping stuff and there’s no a finer group playing it than Cerronato. The vallenato sound is beginning to influence Tejano music. Even Bobby Pulido has recorded three hit songs in this style. There are samples at the Cerronato website.

The Sun and Moon flourishes in a spot left long empty after the departure of Lee’s Chinese Cafe many years ago. El Sol y La Luna serves serious breakfast all day for those who need it and on weekdays has a good hearty, traditional chicken-and-vegetable caldo, the works in a homemade soup.
