Friday Night - The People UpStairs!!!! & DJ Heron Spinning All NIght!
The People UpStairs Funk, Reggae, Rock – Proven instant appeal to a diverse audience.
The People UpStairs have quickly become well known across South Florida as THE quality local act with a sound audiences immediately connect with. The People UpStairs combine modern rock-funk with a groovy island touch and Latin rhythm to bridge barriers and broaden appeal. After hundreds of live shows and distributing thousands of demo CD’s, the diversity of their fans has been proven to span all races and ages. Immediate reactions are immensely positive and the fans’ loyalty only increases the more they listen.
The ensemble includes vocals, bass guitar, lead guitar, drum set, and a plethora of auxiliary percussion. Each member has been playing music since at least the 6th grade with many receiving extensive formal training.
The People UpStairs – who draw their name from their practice studio, a loft snugly sitting upstairs above a plumbing company’s shop – are in demand all over Florida for their crowd-pleasing live performances. The band has traveled to Florida State’s Tallahassee, the University of Florida’s Gainesville, and the University of South Florida’s Tampa at the venues’ request (and expense) to have The People UpStairs entertain their college-town audiences. At home in South Florida, The People UpStairs (often fondly referred to as TPUS) have become advertised regulars in several venues with establishments competing to book the band on high-traffic nights.
Performing at Sunfest in 2009, supporting Damian Marley, 311, Slightly Stupid and Pepper.

Saturday Night - SPAM ALL STARS!!!! & YO MAMA'S FAT BOOTY BAND!!!!
Spam Allstars
DJ Le Spam and Spam Allstars blend improvisational electronic elements and turntables with latin, funk hip hop and dub to create what they call electronic descarga. It’s not a known genre. It’s hard to describe. It attracts many types of people. But as they look out and see people dancing salsa, next to break-dancers, and festival-goers driving for hours to catch a show – they know something very special is going on. The group was formed by Andrew Yeomanson a/k/a DJ Le Spam, who was raised in Toronto, Bogota and London, and has called Miami home since 1993. He got is start by playing guitar in Haitian band Lavalas, and recording and touring wit Miami based artist Nil Lara. Along the way he added to his vinyl collection, and off the road he would DJ locally. These DJ gigs evolved into collaborations with live musicians, performing on an Internet radio show, recording in his home studio and the first of many residencies combining his samplers and DJ skills with a live band. In 202, Spam Allstars began a weekly residency at Hoy Como Ayer in Little Havana, which continues today. In 2003 they started monthly residencies in New York City, Gainesville, Tampa, Atlanta and New Orleans, and playing nationally wherever people would host them. Today they perform 200+ shows, and average 56,000 miles each year. They still do the weekly in Little Havana, and have monthlies in Miami and Miami Beach.
