Latin Fusion TV BLOG

Barbaresco Restaurant and Latin Fusion Tv present a special, and free, Live Jazz Performance with world-class trumpet player Johnny Holliday, at Barbaresco’s, 9715 San Pedro (the old Maggie’s Resturant) on Friday, October 21 from 8 to 10 pm.

Holliday, a San Antonio native, returns home to showcase his unique talents and abilities to raise awareness for the Fisher House and Air Force Security Forces Foundation.  He was scheduled to play on Friday for a private benefit concert but the show was canceled at the last minute and Holliday has decided to play for the public.

The show, co-produced by Independent Functions, LFTv’s management company, and Holliday Entertainment, is to show how individuals can create functions that make a difference within the community.
