It was a hot and sweaty time at Botanic Lab on Wednesday night, where Axel Itto debuted his new single Pirata. As it is always with his gigs, the atmosphere was upbeat and the crowd electric and attractive. There was also two different business suit-wearing surprise birthday parties happening simultaneously, and I'm sure they hadn't seen Axel perform before.
The opening act was Caridad Rivera a belly/fire dancer who wowed us with her moves and scantily clad, shapely body.

Then Axel Itto took the stage and it was our turn to dance, even the birthday party guests were scantily clad by the end. If you haven't seen him perform yet, go. His music is an amalgam of all his life experiences from Ecuador, to Scotland, to Venezuela, to the US, and all the tears and smiles in between -giving even his most danceable tune poignancy. Leave those demons on the dance floor.
