Gilberto Santa Rosa • Festival Latino • June 14 vs. Marlins
Gilberto Santa Rosa is an artist who has most successfully bridged the lively sounds of the rhythmical patterns of the salsa from the 1960s and 70s and enriching the music with new sound formulas, which modified the genre at the start of the 1980s. Santa Rosa received a Latin Grammy in 2006 and a Grammy in 2007 for his album, "Directo al corazón."
Kool & the Gang • 80s Night • June 21 vs. Astros
Kool & The Gang found a special sound at the unique intersection of jazz, r&b, funk and pop. Their music has been created by the same core of players for over thirty years. "Hollywood Swingin," "Jungle Boogie," "Funky Stuff," "Celebrate," "Get Down on It" and "Cherish" are just a few of the songs embodied in this band's multi-Grammy Award-winning repertoire.
Loverboy • Heroes Night • July 5 vs. Royals
In 1980 Loverboy introduced themselves to the world with their self-titled debut album. They quickly became one of America's and MTV's most popular rock bands.

MC Hammer • 90s Night • July 19 vs. Blue Jays
