ABOUT THE MUSIC

Son de Carolina is a Triangle-based music collective dedicated to cultivating son jarocho, the vibrant community-rooted musical tradition of Veracruz, Mexico. Drawing on the tradition’s African, Indigenous, and Spanish influences, the ensemble brings together spirited singing, stringed instruments, percussion, and dance to create performances built around rhythm, participation, and community.

 


PARKING

Please see the map below for an overview of the mill and how to find us. The street address of the mill is 437 Dimmocks Mill Rd., Hillsborough. We are in Suite 17, directly behind Eno River Brewing. To get to our space, coming from Allison St./Eno Mountain Rd, turn in the driveway in front of the big smokestack and then take a right into the Lower Level Parking Lot.  This lot fills up fast – the map shows other parking lots around the mill.  Please note the front row of spaces are reserved for handicapped parking – please do not park here unless you have a valid permit.
