This year, Solstice\u2019s main stage is a vibrant celebration of North America\u2019s multicultural mosaic. Cirque FLIP Fabrique (Canada) kicks off the outdoor entertainment on the museum\u2019s south terrace with acrobatics performed on top of a retrofitted school bus. Then, live music sets from Daym\u00e9 Arocena (Cuba), Son Rompe Pera (Mexico), and Nik West (United States) follow. These three electrifying musical acts showcase African diasporic party music, including Afro-Latin jazz, cumbia, and funk. NicNacc and Eso, two prolific Cleveland-based DJ\u2019s famous for their monthly dance parties, take over the atrium. Projections, light displays, and decorations electrify the museum.<\/p>\n

Born and raised in Naucalpan, the deep outskirts of Mexico City, the Gama brothers and their band, Son Rompe Pera, have thrashed through all preconceived notions of what a marimba-centered band is and have rendered the instrument inseparable from their punk ethos. The group\u2019s shows have become home to the now-infamous marimba mosh pit across the globe, joining intergenerational audiences in moments of essential release and community around its hard-hitting, forward-thinking, unrelenting punk-infused\u00a0cumbias<\/em>. With two critically-acclaimed records under its belt, and hundreds of shows on some of the world\u2019s most prestigious stages to a rapidly growing audience, the band consistently proves its boundlessness as far as where it can take the genre, standing vehemently by the fact that traditions are meant to be both honored, broken, and built again.<\/p>\n

Daym\u00e9 Arocena is a two-time Grammy-nominated and Juno Award\u2013winning Afro-Cuban singer and composer. A powerful voice in contemporary Latin music, Arocena is celebrated for her genre-blending creativity and deep connection to her Cuban roots. Her 2024 album,\u00a0Alkemi<\/em>, marked a bold reinvention of her sound, blending neo-soul, Afro-Caribbean rhythms, and modern pop in collaboration with renowned producer Eduardo Cabra and featuring guest vocals by Vicente Garc\u00eda and Rafa Pab\u00f6n. A track from that album, \u201cA Fuego Lento,\u201d received a Latin Grammy nomination for Song of the Year.<\/p>\n
