Over the last decade, since receiving his MFA from the California Institute of the Arts, de Beaufort has worked steadily towards the construction of a unique and visionary surrealist cosmology expressed through his paintings created while working “in the contemporary space, but to always be reaching for a realm that exists outside of now but simultaneous with both the past and presentâ€.

Inspired by South African singer and activist Miriam Makeba with original music by Cuban pianist Omar Sosa, the work layers text, sound and image that enrich the mysterious and haunting world of Chipaumire’s creation.

Fronted by singer Martyn Jacques who trained himself as an opera singer with a castrati style voice of heartbreaking beauty whilst living alone above a strip joint in Soho for seven years, and accompanied by drummer Adrian Huge and double bass player Adrian Stout. The Tiger Lillies sing savage and passionate songs about prostitutes, drug addicts and losers, their voices soaring and growling like men possessed.

“Foundation of A System”
This SATURDAY at BASE, we are very to welcome Flinch to BASE at Space!
Los Angeles based beat maker Adam Glassco, better known as Flinch, is no stranger to the EDM world. A veteran producer who has progressed effortlessly from his beginnings in drum & bass and then electro, to current endeavors into jump-up and deeper, more melodic synth-based dubstep. The succession of sounds Flinch adheres to reflects a new breed of artists distinguished most by his ability to marry a massive, tear-out bassline with a melody that could serenade your grandmother, or create tracks that pair careful grit & distortion with catchy songwriting. A true tastemaker, Flinch consistently delivers a wide selection of cuts riding between the UK funky, club, moombahton, techno, garage, and dubstep genre lines. There is an undeniable buzz in the bass music world for Flinchʼs recent productions on labels like SMOG and Trouble & Bass records, but most notably the massive “World On Fire,†which has often been championed by Skrillex, 12th Planet, and Datsik and is making a huge impact with audiences worldwide
Also on the decks, RR’s own Johnny Terror and Radamas. Come experience the NEW UNDERGROUND taking place in the BASEment of Club Space!!! Tell your friends to tell their friends, everybody is welcome to experience what goes down in the BASement after dark… #WERAGEHARDER

Latin funk. Fusion. Jam band. Multicultural cocktail. Afro-Latin-Baby-Makin’-Descarga-Funk. Miami’s Suenalo has been crowned the Miami New Times’ Best of Miami Awards: Best Latin Rock Band in 2005, and most recently Best Latin Band in 2011. Even the lengthy hyphenated description the band came up with themselves falls short of the true breadth of what they represent. If Suenalo’s one of a kind fusion is hard to pinpoint, it’s only because no one’s ever done anything quite like it before.

What started out as a unique jam project, Uma Galera became a sound made up of 7 different cultures and styles from allover the world.
Formed from a mix of long time friendships to quick first glance love & chemistry, the band expresses and lives strongly through the global message of unity and peace.
It’s focuses are on bringing to the stage an amazing sound experience, combined with a fun performance for every crowd-member to enjoy. With trippy chill-out soul grooves to tons of jump-on-your-feet tunes, Uma Galera has something for everyone.
Inspired by a mix of cultures, styles, and rhythms from all around the world (with band members from Uruguay, Venezuela,Argentina,Puerto Rico, Switzerland, Brazil, Cuba, and Colombia) the band is among the new generation of musicians giving birth to new soul & world music. Ska, funk, Jazz, Cumbia, Samba, Reggae, Salsa, Candombe, Punk, Rock, Hip-Hop, Bossa Nova, and Blues are just some of the styles that Uma Galera incorporates into their music performances.
And the band does not limit their sound, as they also interpret a wide range of covers from many of their favorite new and old artists such as, Amy Winehouse, James Brown, Bob Marley, Adele, Franz Ferdinand & Pink Floyd, etc…
In Brazil, the word Galera first meant “the most popular place in a football stadium” and where the coolest and most excited fans went to, today it means “A big group of friends”.

The Brian Lynch Afro-Caribbean Jazz Artist Ensemble, conducted by Grammy Award winning trumpeter and Frost School of Music professor Brian Lynch, performs original compositions and new arrangements of modern jazz repertory in the exciting and propulsive idiom known as Latin Jazz. Professor Lynch directs his hand picked ensemble of talented young musicians and performs with them as his own group.
Among his many achievements, Brian Lynch has long been known as a great conductor of the jazz jam session. As a member of the house band at the legendary Star Cafe sessions in the New York City of the early 1980s, with Junior Cook and Harold White, and as bandleader of the late night jams at the NY Blue Note in the 1990s, Lynch absorbed the philosophy and practice of the session at its highest level. Now he brings his knowledge and love of the form to Miami and PAX.
Practitioners of all genres from traditional to contemporary, from straight ahead to Afro-Cuban and world music, will be encouraged to participate and cross pollinate, young students and established artists alike. Standards will be kept high and protocol will be firmly in place to encourage the best musical result for players and listeners in the unique and informal atmosphere of PAX!
Brian Lynch
A vital force and emergent legend within both the hardcore straight ahead and Latin Jazz communities, Grammy© Award Winner Brian Lynch is as comfortable negotiating the complexities of clave with Afro-Caribbean pioneer Eddie Palmieri as he is swinging through advanced harmony with bebop maestro Phil Woods. A honored graduate of two of the jazz world’s most distinguished academies, Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers and the Horace Silver Quintet, he has been a valued collaborator with jazz artists such as Benny Golson, Toshiko Akiyoshi, and Charles McPherson; Latin music icons as diverse as Hector LaVoe and Lila Downs; and pop luminaries such as Prince. As a bandleader and recording artist he has released 19 critically acclaimed CDs featuring his distinctive composing and arranging, and toured the world with various ensembles reflecting the wide sweep of his music. He currently is Professor of Jazz Trumpet at the Frost School Of Music, University of Miami as well as conducting clinics and workshops at prestigious institutions of learning the world over. His talents have been recognized by top placing in the Downbeat Critics and Readers Polls (#3 Trumpet 2011 Critics Poll); highly rated reviews for his work in Downbeat, Jazziz and Jazz Times; 2005 and 2007 Grammy award nominations, and grants from the National Endowment for the Arts, Chamber Music America, and Meet The Composer.
Brian’s most recent CD releases as a leader include the Downbeat 5 star rated Unsung Heroes project (Hollistic MusicWorks), ConClave Vol. 2 with his Spheres Of Influence group (CrissCross), the Grammy© Award winning Simpático featuring Eddie Palmieri (ArtistShare), and Bolero Nights For Billie Holiday (Venus).
“You can lose yourself in the pure energy of his playing, but at any moment you can switch your attention to the logic and craftsmanship of his music and find multiple rewards.†NEIL TESSER, Jazziz
“Lynch demonstrates that a dedicated, knowledgeable jazzman can play a diversity of styles with telling authenticity, and make the renditions extremely appealing to both musician and neophyte…Lynch is simply first-rate.†ZAN STEWART, Downbeat

Ray Liriano – Cantante/Compositor Dominicano, nos brinda una propuesta como trio cargada de Las influencias de rock alternativo, folk y ritmos latinos.
Bachaco is an international Afro-Caribbean Roots Rock band based out of Miami, Florida in the U.S. Their music successfully blends feel-good and conscious lyrics through the mix of Reggae, Dancehall and Ska with Rock, Hip-Hop and Colombian Cumbia. Their recent and much anticipated self-titled independent debut album is out now and features their hit singles “Cumbia Pa’ La Nena†and “Ni Una Lagrima†Their “Cumbia Pa’ La Nena†video, produced by Latin Grammy Winner video director Cesar Rodriguez, achieved rotation on MTV Tr3s and MTV Latin America. BACHACO was also selected as “Descubre & Download†Artist of the Month on the MTV Tr3s website during November 2012 where visitors downloaded the hit single “Cumbia Pa’ La Nena†completely free. Both singles reached the top 20 charts on AOL Radio’s Rock Latino station with “Cumbia pa’ la Nena†on #3 and “Ni Una Lagrima†on #1. BACHACO’s debut album also includes the hit singles “Jamaican Cumbia†as well as a special collaboration with South American Reggae legends Gondwana on “Cruzando Fronteras.â€
Since its formation in 2007, Bachaco has performed over 300 concerts all the way from Argentina to Canada sharing stage and performing at the same events and festivals as other big names in the reggae and world music scenes such as Israel Vibration, Toots & The Maytals, Tribal Seeds, Ozomatli, Luciano, Easy Star All-stars, Midnite, Cultura Profetica, Gondwana, Los Cafres, Los Pericos, Bahiano, Alika, Jarabe de Palo, Los Amigos Invisibles, WAR, King Chango and many more. Bachaco has also showcased during the SXSW and LAMC music conferences thanks to support from BMI.
Bachaco’s members hail from Venezuela, Colombia, Jamaica, Puerto Rico, Peru and the U.S. allowing their songs to naturally flow in both English and Spanish but the true language Bachaco speaks is its own music and what they transmit: An Explosive International High Energy Groove! That is simply the result of the band’s own diverse range of nationalities. BACHACO is a true multi-cultural experience.
Bachaco was initially conceived by Venezuelan brothers Edilberto “Eddy†Morillo, lead vocals, and Jose Morillo, bass and vocals, along with Domingo Medina on drums, also from Venezuela. The current 8-piece line up consists of: Edilberto “Eddy†Morillo on vocals, Domingo Medina on drums, Jamaican guitarist and vocalist Matthew Jacquette, Bruce McKinnon Jr., Miami-born half Colombian half Irish, on trumpet and vocals, Alexander Cruz, Puerto Rican, on trombone, Farid Cure on electric guitar, from Colombia, and Cristian “Mumbles†Rocha from Peru. Recently added to the lineup, John “JP” Guinan on SAX.
What is a Bachaco? The word Bachaco is the name given to a Leafcutter Ant in Venezuela. The same type of ant is found accross that Amazon Rainforest and in countries such as Panama, Colombia, Venezuela and Brazil. The insect is used by Venezuelan indians to create a “picante†(hot sauce). We could say Bachaco is a musical Picante.
“Bienvenidos a vivir, bienvenidos a soñar” (welcome to live, welcome to dream) our first CD, brought us a lot of learning in different aspects of our life; in a musical and a personal way. After this dream came true… what it is next: work and work. Today El Zaguán is in the process of exploration, where we have found new rhythms, new ideas, and a new road without losing our essence and the wave that represent El Zaguán, giving us as a result song that will be heard soon and that probably would be in our next work.
However, If you haven’t heard about us until now; What is El Zaguán?:
El Zaguán is a rock group that has elements of reggae, salsa, blues, pop and Rock & Roll; with a lot of COLOMBIAN touch, and with the mix of letters about our own daily experiences, it gives fun spaces to whom heard the songs and to the group; giving as a result a music “sancocho” with a lot of flavor.
The band is made up by three musicians since 2008 that have been working on other projects during the past years, specially playing cover at some Medellin bars. They are: Juan Esteban Arango as the singer, Miguel Arango as the drummer and Lucas Alvarez on the keyboards.
At the moment the band is on the pre-production for the second album with the hand of Sound Node. Drums, percussion and bass were recorded in Medellin, keyboards in Bogota and guitars and voice in London.

PALO! hits the stage with the Afro-Cuban Funk.
PALO! was formed in 2003 when Steve Roitstein invited fellow musicians Leslie Cartaya (vocals), Philbert Armenteros (vocals, percussion), Ed Calle (sax) and Raymer Olalde (vocals, percussion) to join him in an improvised musical experiment combining Cuban music with funk beats. PALO! immediately began a residency at Hoy como Ayer, one of the area’s best live music clubs. They soon started performing in many other area venues. PALO! has been featured at events such as Carnaval on the Mile, Art in the Park, the Amigos For Kids Charity, Miami Book Fair, Arsht Center Fall for the Arts, and the Miami Music Festival.
PALO! has performed for packed houses at New York’s legendary SOB’s, Ryles Jazz Club and Villa Victoria Center for the Arts in Boston, and the Chicago Folk and Roots Festival. The band often appears at venues throughout South Florida.
Their first CD, “This Is Afro-Cuban Funk†is available on gopalo.com as well as in music stores, on iTunes and other digital stores.

The band is comprised of seventeen professional musicians whose cumulative experience totals over five hundred years. Our members have worked with an exhaustive list of luminaries in entertainment including Frank, the Chairman of the Board. Our purpose is to facilitate the performance of our music to a new and thirsty audience.
The band’s library features over one thousand arrangements by such notables as Tommy Newsom, Don Sebesky, Buddy Rich, Doc Severinson, Count Basie, and Sam Nestico. The list goes on and on but basically they are the best and it is our hope to present and preserve the only true original American music form and allow a new audience to discover it. Our particular type of band draws an incredible amount of attention just by its appearance.

Born in Rio de Janeiro, Rose realized she had the gift of singing at a very early age.
Everyone from her mother’s side was a musician. She is the great-grand daughter of the conductor and composer CUPERTINO DE MENEZES and grand daughter of the guitar player and composer MANUEL DE MENEZES. Cupertino, also a flutist, was a band member of a “choro†group led by Callado Junior and Chiquinha Gonzaga, two of the most prominent musicians from this era. Manuel was partner – in music, adventures and “Bohemia – of the most important Brazilian composer in the early 30’s – Noel Rosa.
She started singing professionally with the OCTETO RIO ORCHESTRA performing jn the musically wealthy nightclub scene of Rio. She studied vocal technique with Graciela di Salerno, Nancy Miranda and Suely Mesquita. She also studied theory and ear training at the Instituto Vila Lobos and Centro de Instrução Musical Ian Guest.
Rose graduated with a degree in Portuguese and Literature from the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro. As a student, she was involved in various theatrical productions with the group “A QUEM INTERESSA.â€
Rose Max performed extensively as a soloist with the vocal group AEQUALE under the direction of acclaimed-musical director ANDRÉ PROTÃSIO. Gaining interest and respect locally, she started working with a number of different bands. One of her best experiences was performing at “CLUBE DO SAMBA†(Samba Club) where she had a chance to learn with some of the big names of Brazilian music, such as Maestro Licinho, Neco, Antonio Carlos Tourinho, João Nogueira, and Roberto Ribeiro. She also started working as a session singer, recording jingles and background vocals, which led to the opportunity of backing up some of Brazil’ s most renowned singers.
Rose moved to Miami in October of 1993, where she has been continuing to grow and develop musically, and by keeping a constant performance schedule, she has become highly recognized in the Brazilian, Hispanic and American communities. She won the BRAZILIAN PRESS AWARD for the “Best Female Brazilian Singer Residing and Performing in the USA†in 1997, 1998 and 2001.

PAX Miami Presents
the SERIOUS MULTI JAZZ JAM SESSION
Host: Grammy© Award winning trumpeter BRIAN LYNCH and his Artist Ensemble
Mondays at 8:30 PM starting January 14th, 2013
PAX Miami
337 Southwest 8th Street Miami, FL 33130
(305) 640-5847
The Brian Lynch Afro-Caribbean Jazz Artist Ensemble, conducted by Grammy Award winning trumpeter and Frost School of Music professor Brian Lynch, performs original compositions and new arrangements of modern jazz repertory in the exciting and propulsive idiom known as Latin Jazz. Professor Lynch directs his hand picked ensemble of talented young musicians and performs with them as his own group.
Among his many achievements, Brian Lynch has long been known as a great conductor of the jazz jam session. As a member of the house band at the legendary Star Cafe sessions in the New York City of the early 1980s, with Junior Cook and Harold White, and as bandleader of the late night jams at the NY Blue Note in the 1990s, Lynch absorbed the philosophy and practice of the session at its highest level. Now he brings his knowledge and love of the form to Miami and PAX.
Practitioners of all genres from traditional to contemporary, from straight ahead to Afro-Cuban and world music, will be encouraged to participate and cross pollinate, young students and established artists alike. Standards will be kept high and protocol will be firmly in place to encourage the best musical result for players and listeners in the unique and informal atmosphere of PAX!
Brian Lynch
A vital force and emergent legend within both the hardcore straight ahead and Latin Jazz communities, Grammy© Award Winner Brian Lynch is as comfortable negotiating the complexities of clave with Afro-Caribbean pioneer Eddie Palmieri as he is swinging through advanced harmony with bebop maestro Phil Woods. A honored graduate of two of the jazz world’s most distinguished academies, Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers and the Horace Silver Quintet, he has been a valued collaborator with jazz artists such as Benny Golson, Toshiko Akiyoshi, and Charles McPherson; Latin music icons as diverse as Hector LaVoe and Lila Downs; and pop luminaries such as Prince. As a bandleader and recording artist he has released 19 critically acclaimed CDs featuring his distinctive composing and arranging, and toured the world with various ensembles reflecting the wide sweep of his music. He currently is Professor of Jazz Trumpet at the Frost School Of Music, University of Miami as well as conducting clinics and workshops at prestigious institutions of learning the world over. His talents have been recognized by top placing in the Downbeat Critics and Readers Polls (#3 Trumpet 2011 Critics Poll); highly rated reviews for his work in Downbeat, Jazziz and Jazz Times; 2005 and 2007 Grammy award nominations, and grants from the National Endowment for the Arts, Chamber Music America, and Meet The Composer.
Brian’s most recent CD releases as a leader include the Downbeat 5 star rated Unsung Heroes project (Hollistic MusicWorks), ConClave Vol. 2 with his Spheres Of Influence group (CrissCross), the Grammy© Award winning Simpático featuring Eddie Palmieri (ArtistShare), and Bolero Nights For Billie Holiday (Venus).
“You can lose yourself in the pure energy of his playing, but at any moment you can switch your attention to the logic and craftsmanship of his music and find multiple rewards.†NEIL TESSER, Jazziz
“Lynch demonstrates that a dedicated, knowledgeable jazzman can play a diversity of styles with telling authenticity, and make the renditions extremely appealing to both musician and neophyte…Lynch is simply first-rate.†ZAN STEWART, Downbeat

Picadillo, a musical group from Spain, presents its debut album, Las cosas de la vida. Picadillo was formed in August, 2012, in Lavapies, Madrid, when producer Hector Aguero along with two vocalists, Rey Rodriguez and Sol Ruiz joined and began a musical experiment that launched the project. Later joined with trumpeter, percussionist, Jochi, which added the key element to the classic sound of the band. When these musicians of cuban origin came together they created a musical “Picadilloâ€, (originally a creole recipe), revisiting vintage cuban rhythms like the danzon, boogaloo, cha cha cha and combining with New Orleans trad Jazz, second line, soul and country. They naturally create the link from Cuba to New Orleans. With energetic live performances, they capture audiences with their son electrico. Las cosas de la vida, was recorded at DoReMix studios in Madrid and mixed and mastered by Luis Duran at PM Records en Cuba, in Nov 2012. It was independently released and completed thanks to crowdfunding

The exhibit, “Tracing the Imaginary†focuses on the artwork of daughter and mother. Both women share a similar trajectory starting their carrier as a raw artist. Sonia Baez-Hernandez after a decade of working in art and sociology got a MFA at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Francisca Hernandez began doing ceramic after retired. In 1998 Hernandez began to develop her drawings and mastering skill.
Hernandez’s drawings transport the audience to imaginary gardens, symbolism, and fragmentation of multiple spaces. In contrast, Baez-Hernandez experiments with a realm of micros organic or anthropomorphic forms that emerge as part of a dialogue between surrealistic overtones, and gestural marking. The exhibition includes two-dimensional pieces, installation art, found –object assemblages, and a performance by Baez-Hernandez. Some of their artworks transform the pitch of illness into artistic expressions and emanate therapeutic value.

Chef Clay Conley opened BÅ«ccan in Palm Beach, Florida in 2011.

Raving accolades, a James Beard Award nomination for Best Chef: South – in both 2012 and 2013 – and an expansion. In February 2012, he opened Imoto (transl: little sister), an intimate, Asian-focused extension of BÅ«ccan. His “progressive American†approach at BÅ«ccan blends the classic comfort of his New England childhood, the rustic boldness of the Mediterranean, and the sensual influence of Latin America. Highlighting contrasting tastes, textures, and temperatures, Clay applies his flair and sense of balance to traditional flavor combinations and dishes. Chef Clay and his restaurants have been recognized in national and international publications including Travel + Leisure, Robb Report, Conde Nast Traveler, Miami Herald, Complot, USA Today, Fodors, Boston Globe, NY Post and Wall Street Journal. BÅ«ccan is listed as Forbes Travel Guide’s “hottest spot†in Palm Beach and as Esquire’s “Where to Eat in South FL Now,†and has received “Best Restaurant†honors from all area publications.
