los noviembres @ mambo, saturdays

Seen last week at La Cantina Mambo -

- One local A List chef from Argentina; so of course Los Noviembres included a Carlos Gardell tango straight out of the '30s in their set, sung in Portugese, naturally.

- One art conservator from a major local museum. Since she hails from Paris a Django tune seemed appropriate and was accordingly performed!

Sometimes people like this feel a little "stranded" in good ol' cowtown and require something a little more sophisticated. And this is Los Noviembres at Mambo .... an Oasis of "Cool". Ahhh, but they like the desert too and are smart enough to dig down into that subterranean well known as old Fort Worth Blues as played out on Jacksboro Hwy circa '40s / '60s. And yes, Los Noviembres delivers the hard blues as well. Let's remember, sophisticated embraces the heavy and the cool.

Los Noviembres delivers the goods every Saturday all Summer at Mambo.

thanks for the mention there ken!

last night was the best night yet at mambo. we had a consistent crowd of about eighty people the whole night. which is about 75% full. one cool thing is that people are stickin' with us the whole way (through breaks etc.) but best of all last night was that we had a good amount of return buisiness.

lots of compliments on the food too. come by when ya'll get a chance!
