Global Groove is a FREE monthly concert series produced just for VIU students! Each month features a different musical genre from the region and/or around the world.

The series is a proud partnership between Vancouver Island University Students' Union (VIUSU) and VIU Cultural Connections (Faculty of International Education).

SALSAHALL COLLECTIVE:
Under the Direction of Harvey Paris (Bananafish Dance Orchestra), SalsaHall Collective is a musical group that combines dancehall and salsa creating a fusion sound that has come to be known as Salsahall. The project began with just a Cuban piano montuno played over top of a modern dancehall rhythm. From there the Collective began bringing all of their traditional as well as contemporary sounds together.

The group is comprised of Vancouver-based musicians of diverse backgrounds with members originally hailing from Jamaica, Venuzuela, El Salvador, Guatemala and France.
