We joined Neil Young, Beck, and Lana Del Rey at the Harvest Moon Gathering on Saturday, October 25, 2025 to support our great friends at the Painted Turtle in Lake Hughes CA. Several thousand attendees enjoyed music on this picture perfect day. Several of us almost fainted on stage. Thank you April Tani, Katie Griffin, and Lou Alder for having us on the bill. We had a great time!
Masanga Marimba Closes Out LA County Holiday Celebration!
We were chosen from over 100 entries to perform for the 65th Annual LA County Holiday Celebration, sponsored by the Music Center at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion on Christmas Eve, 2024. We were scheduled to play to last but because the show was running a little late we ended up closing out the celebration (apologies to our good friends Makina Loca). See our performance here:
Waka Waka, from our newest Record, "Shakanaka"
Upcoming Shows!
This fair is always a great time with many students sharing their culture and food. We let students play our instruments during our breaks and sometimes they make some pretty impressive music! The event is free!
Calling all Masanga Fans! We are looking for gigs in the Bay Area for Friday evening, June 25th and Sunday morning, June 27th. Our Saturday June 26th performance is private but we would like to find a club for Friday night and a Sunday morning Farmer's market.
Terrence, Joyce and Tyson- thank you for flying up to LA to see us at the Natural History Musuem! It was amazing to see you. Please talk to the manager at Stonestown and have them return our email to schedule us for Sunday morning June 27th. Hope to see you there!
