Latin Sounds Fill the Air at Spotlight 29 Casino for Cinco de Mayo

COACHELLA, Calif., April 24 /PRNewswire/ -- Since bursting onto the
mainstream music scene during 1968's Oscar telecast, Sergio Mendes parlayed
his signature fusion of jazz, funk and Latin rhythms into top 10 hits, more
than 35 albums and more than four decades of music. Now, Mendes fills the
air at Spotlight 29 Casino with Latin sounds on Cinco de Mayo.

Mendes performs at 8 p.m. on Saturday, May 5 in the casino's Spotlight
Showroom. Tickets are $60, $50, $45 and $35 and are available now at
StarTicketsPlus.com or by calling (800) 585-3737, and at the Spotlight 29
Casino Gift Shop and at the Spotlight Showroom Box Office on the day of the
show.

Originally from Brazil, Mendes began studying music with the hopes of
becoming a classical pianist. Gigs in nightclubs ignited his interest in
the new dance sounds of the bossa nova and samba, which were becoming
wildly popular in his home country. He began performing with U.S. jazz
artists who toured Brazil, and he soon cut his first jazz album, "Dance
Moderno" in 1961.

He later relocated to the U.S. and cut additional albums, each met with
mild success. After switching to Herb Albert's A&M label, Mendes released
the album "Sergio Mendes and Brazil '66" in 1966. The album's first single,
"Mais Que Nada" shot up the pop charts and the album went platinum.

Then came the 1968 Oscar telecast when he performed the Oscar-nominated
"The Look of Love," and he became an overnight sensation. His cover of the
song went to #4 on the charts, a rank he would later achieve with 1983's
"Never Gonna Let You Go."

Other Mendes hits include "Look Around," "Day Tripper," "What the World
Needs Now," "Ye-Me-Le," "Wichita Lineman," "Tristeza Em Mim," "Batida
Deiferente" and "So Tinha de Sen Com Voce."

Put the spotlight on Latin rhythms at Spotlight 29 Casino, the
Coachella Valley's most exciting place to play. Spotlight 29 Casino is a
business venture of the Twenty-Nine Palms Band of Mission Indians. Turn it
