Katmandu was originally formed in Kathmandu, Nepal, in 1983. (“Katmandu” is the correct spelling for this Nepalese capital city in Spanish.) On August 5, you can expect to hear traditional songs from India, Greece, Saudia Arabia, Yeman, and Cambodia, as well as many Jazz and Indian fusion songs. Plus, Katmandu shows their versatility by throwing in Beatles, Rolling Stones, and Donovan hits. These groups helped to introduce sitar music to the West in the 1960s and ‘70s.
This Katmandu performance is a part of the Paradise Community Center’s “Starry Nights Concert Series,” which also brought acclaimed local guitarist Eduardo Leon to the stage last month. Next month, Starry Nights (the first Friday of every month) will host “Singin’ in the Rain,” a karaoke event. At all Starry Nights’ concerts, there are drinks, food, and desserts available for purchase. An exotic Mediterranean meal will be prepared to accompany Katmandu on August 5.
Tickets are $100 pesos and can be purchased at the door or in advance at the Paradise Community Center box office (127 Pulpito, between Amapas and Olas Altas, across from Coco’s Kitchen) or Deja New Consignment (280 Jacarandas). Remember that the Paradise Community Center is a non-profit organization, and they funnel the proceeds from their events to CompassioNet Impact. CompassioNet provides hot meals, clothes, books, English classes, loans, and more to impoverished families in Puerto Vallarta.
