On Saturday, Tico rock bands Hubba & Silica, Los Cuchillos, Esimple, Moldo, Sight of Emptiness and Billy the Kid will be joined by Guatemalan funk rockers Hot Sugar Mama and Escaparate of Honduras. Sunday’s lineup will include Costa Rican groups Pneuma, aUTOPerro, Advent of Bedlam, Alberto Chaves, Corpse Garden and Reacción Direkta, with all-female band SK of Panama.

The free concerts start at noon both days. For more information, see the Spanish Cultural Center’s website at www.ccecr.org.
