Weekend Spotlight: Eclectic Funk, Some Chill Jazz and Mexican Pop-Up
We’ve got a couple of fun and funky things to do this weekend while you’re all out and about. Although Friday night into Saturday will be bringing some light snow, all events listed are Thursday and Sunday, so get out while you can!
Go Underground with Sophia and BoneBroth
Thursday, December 15 — Belfast

If you’re looking for a vibe that is adult, chill, eclectic, and doesn’t have a whiff of the holidays in it, first go check out the new underground beer and wine bar I just covered, Sophia, at 4 p.m. Bring your own records—they love that! Then, go to The Underground Lounge (in the basement of the Basil Burwell Community Theater-17 Court Street) to see BoneBroth. Their PR states: “Spearheaded by irrepressible fiddler Cara Lauzon, an inveterate traveler who incorporates musical ideas from dozens of countries, BoneBroth creates a unique, improvisational brew of world music, Balkan melodies, and funky rhythms. Rounding out the band is veteran guitarist Eenor (Les Claypool’s Frog Brigade), bassist Eric Halsey, drummer Jason Dean, and rapper Mateo Mendoza.” Doors open at 6;30 p.m. and the show starts at 7 p.m. Tickets: Only $10; cash only at the door.

Penobscot Bay Language School (28 Gay Street) is going to teach you the meaning of “Las Posadas” (the inns) with a holiday party celebrating Mexican holiday traditions and fare from 1 to 4 p.m. Traditional snacks from Mexico will be provided (including tacos de canasta, guacamole, ponche, gelatina, and other authentic treats!) A Maine family with strong family ties to their Mexican heritage is behind this event. This event is open to the public, with a suggested $5-$10 donation (online or at the door).
