We are in full-on celebration mode because our record label, Bochinche Records, is nominated for a Latin Grammy® Award for “Best Tango Album,” for our 2024 release by Sexteto Fantasma, La inevitable tentacion de ir a contramano. Two members of Sexteto Fantasma are traveling to the U.S. for the award ceremony and we are adding a special milonga to celebrate them. Please join us for a night of live music and fun on Friday, November 7.

We’re gearing up for another fantastic Milonga Qilombo on Saturday, November 22. This month’s event will feature Karen Johnson alongside Andrés Ozzuna, who will be teaching at PATS for the first time. You can learn more about both Karen & Andrés here. The pre-milonga class will focus on milonguero-style close embrace, taught from a queer tango perspective. We’ll have DJ Karen Johnson for the milonga, and a variety of Argentine treats (empanadas! Pascualinas! alfajores!) to keep you energized and dancing all night long!
