Cuban guitarist Josué Tacoronte Otero and Paulina Izquierdo, a singer from Mexico, will perform in Port Moody next Thursday at a private home.

Many music acts and chat groups scheduled for Port Moody’s Gallery Bistro this year have found new homes after a fire burned down the business.

Next Thursday, Cuban guitarist Josué Tacoronte Otero and Paulina Izquierdo, a singer from Mexico, will entertain at a private home as part of their B.C. tour. It will be the pair’s only Lower Mainland stop.

Gallery Bistro owners Rainer and Helen Daniels will be at the Sept. 12 concert that will be held at a neighbour’s home; it’s expected to be a sell-out.

As for the Bistro’s regular groups, the Legion branch (2529 Clarke St.) will play host to its Monday Jazz Jams with Gord Hembruff, starting Sept. 9, from 7:30 to 9:30 p.m., while the Port Moody Arts Centre (2425 St. Johns St.) will welcome Creative People Talking with Rose Kapp, beginning Sept. 12 from 1 to 2:30 p.m.

And Greendrinks Tri-Cities will move to Pasta Polo (2754 Barnet Hwy., Coquitlam) starting Sept. 18, from 6:30 to 9:30 p.m. Its first meeting following the Bistro blaze is on electric car infrastructure.
