A bunch of players from the Twin Cities' Latin and Caribbean music scenes wasted no time banding together to put on a benefit concert for victims of the Haiti earthquake: "Solidarité Avec Haïti" will be held Friday at the Cedar Cultural Center (6 p.m., $10 suggested). The show will led by the likes of Grammy-nominated singer/pianist Viviana Pintado (known from Albita and Charanga Tropical), "Sota-Rico" reggaeton/hip-hop starlet Maria Isa, SUNPlug'd leader and Cameroon native Ken Wanaku, plus Doug Little's beloved salsa/jazz band Charanga Tropical and many more.
Also, food will be catered by French Meadow and the terrific Cuban joint Victor's 1959 Cafe. All the money from the show will go to Doctors Without Borders/Medicins Sans Frontieres.
