The musical activities going on in our small town of Boquete are really amazing! Every week there's live music in restaurants and hotels somewhere in the city. Be it Las Ruinas, The Oasis, the Bistro, the Rock restaurant or the Baru restaurant - you can be sure to find live shows somewhere, not to speak of disco sounds at La Cabana or the Zanzibar! In addition, there are the free Sunday morning in the Park concerts on the second Sunday of each month. There are at least three different expat bands in town now plus some solo acts and a number of Panamanian artists covering a wide array of musical styles. Jazzin' babies should check out Boquete's recently formed Jazz trio (Caesar&The Day Bros.), and Paul and Jon Day's Monday evening shows at the Rock (6:30-9:30). For dancin' babies Yella&Rich's  'Anything Goes' shows at Las Ruinas are a must!
