The lineup:
Brian
Sit back, relax and demodulate as this 21st-century one-man techno band fills the room with ambient, mid-tempo soundscapes. The organic and electric come together under the watchfull eye and steady beat of a man known as Brian.
Yosimar Reyes migrated to the United States from Atoyac de Alvarez, Guerrero a small town in Mexico. He maintains strong cultural roots and uses both English and Spanish to express himself in his poetry. His poetry stems from personal experiences, his neighborhood and the social political issues that affect him and the greater community. He holds the title of the 2006 South Bay Teen Grand Slam Champion and has performed all over the Bay Area. As part of MACLA's youth collective, he formed one fifth of the group that traveled to New York City, where he competed in the International Brave New Voices Spoken Word competition.
