Candela: a Salsa and vibes vinyl social founded by Oye Manny (Manny Parra) and Boricua Soul (Jose Rivera) just celebrated is 1 year anniversary at Axelrad.  Candela is a cultural celebration of Puerto Rican and Colombian culture for Salsa and the sounds that transcend generations, genre and communities.  

In that spirit Candela wants to also create a space to be able to give back to a culture that has given us so much to us.  Unidos for Puerto Rico!

Join us October 9th from 4-10 p.m. for a special Benefit Concert for Puerto Rico with Tres Sound Live, Candela vibes and special guests for an evening for a good cause and fun to benefit the Hispanic Federation who is doing the work on the ground in Puerto Rico post Hurricane Fiona. 

See more info on this great organization: With Hurricane Fiona battering Puerto Rico, causing historic flooding and  widespread power outages, Hispanic Federation is already on the ground providing emergency relief services and essential supplies to the communities most affected by the storm. Almost 5 years to the day after the devastation of Hurricane Maria Category, a Category 5 storm that caused unprecedented destruction; the people of Puerto Rico desperately need your help once again. Because Puerto Rico is still rebuilding from the damage of Maria, the flooding and power outages caused by Fiona are already far more severe and life threatening than they should be. The coming days are essential to get emergency services and supplies to those who need it most. Please donate today to help children and families across the island!
