Immerse in secondline and maracatu, a little zydeco and forr, plus funk and Brazilian country as Nation Beat gets the party started OUTSIDE for 2012. Calling it 'Americana music from both Americas,' bandleader Scott Kettner traces the group's distinctive sound'honed through years of collaboration on stage and in the studio'to its origins in northeastern Brazil and the Deep South of the United States. Kettner with captivating singer Liliana Araujo host this open-air party swirling with Mardi Gras and Carnival melodies. Parking is available in the lot south of the Caterpillar and SAIC building at 1901 South First Street. Presented by Krannert Center, in association with Fox/Atkins Development, LLC Community Partner: The Bike Project of Urbana-Champaign.
