Austin is host to many events for “Day of the Dead” – Dias de los Muertos – approaching. Among the festivals, food and live music celebrations, the performance-oriented Latin dance band from Venezuela, Los Amigos Inivisibles, who are “heavily indebted to funk and disco (with a dash of acid jazz)” will be headlining a showcase at the Empire Control Room & Garage on Saturday, October 28th. Doors at 8 pm.
Los Amigos Invisibles will be joined by Los Master Plus, Superfónicos, Frederico7, Ruby & The Reckless and Party Wolfe, if not more guest artists.

“Combining their love of disco and funk with their reverence for old-fashioned Latin dances like the mambo and bossa-nova, the sextet took the lounge genre to a new level of tongue- in-cheek enjoyment through their expertly executed jams and sexually fixated lyrics.” – New York Post
I had the opportunity to see and hear Los Amigos Invisibles this past March during the SXSW Music Festival. They definitely had the venue packed and dancing to their fabulous music. I took the photo below during their performance.
