Grupo Soncache headlines 'Latin Night' at Sam Houston Club

The Sam Houston Club at Ft. Sam may become the most popular live music venue for Latino music. At the least it is quickly becoming a busy center for community events like wedding receptions, quincianeras, youth and adult activities and other social events.

Meanwhile, this Friday night, salsa/tropical music fans have a party to celebrate when Grupo Soncache comes to Sam Houston Club.

Grupo Soncache, from Killeen, (in photo at right) stop in at Sam Houston Club Friday night in what is being billed as Latin Night at Fort Sam. Also performing will be DJ Papote.

The Sam Houston Club is located at Bldg 1395 Chaffe Rd. Doors open at 8:30 p.m. Admission is free before 9 p.m. and $5 after. For more details call (210) 224-2721 or visit www.fortsamhoustonwmr.com

Music fans should realize a new Latin Night showcase is a rare event. It is not everyday that a new venue opens to cater to salsa/tropical music fans. So if you like this type of music, get out there and support the venue and help show we need more of this type of entertainment.

DJ Papote is a veteran concert promoter and his next show is the Salsa Rengue Summer Bash, an Indoor/outddoor festival featuring Mi Rumba Orchestra, Grupo Fuego, Grupo Soncache, and DJ Papote.

The family festival will also feature arts & crafts, food booths.

Admission will be $7 to the event scheduled at the Semeneya Ballroom, 2899 N.E. Loop 410 (210) 822-8075 www.myspace.com/djpapote
