This past weekend, Santa Clarita was the place to be as friends and family gathered to celebrate a fabulous 50th birthday bash that brought together old-school soul and new-school vibes. The event was filled with music, memories, and magic — a perfect tribute to five amazing decades!

From the start, the energy was high with classic 90s R&B tracks setting the tone — think Mary J. Blige, Boyz II Men, and R.Kelly. But the celebration didn’t stop there. The birthday girl’s daughters brought in the next generation of hits, adding some of today’s hottest hip-hop tracks to keep the younger crowd on their feet.

The night featured a couple of “shot times,” where everyone raised their glasses to toast to life, love, and 50 years of excellence. One of the most heartwarming moments was when the birthday queen handed out thoughtful gifts to fellow September babies in the room — a true display of her generous spirit.

As the party continued, all the men hit the dance floor for a fun and lively group groove, followed by the ladies taking over with even more energy and style. Later, the couples in attendance were invited to share a few slow songs together — a beautiful moment that added romance to an already magical night.

This Santa Clarita 50th birthday party was more than a celebration — it was a memory in the making. With the perfect mix of nostalgic tunes, modern hits, heartfelt moments, and non-stop dancing, it’s safe to say this milestone was celebrated in true style.

 We had a great time playing in North Hollywood the other day. It was a surprise 80th birthday party.  It was such a surprise even I did not even know.  It was a dark street and the address was semi hidden and I typically can tell who is having a party on a street. I unloaded my gear and my start time was at 7 and I was there around 610 and I was asked that grandpa is close and I have to be ready soon. So I got everything set up and was playing 15 minutes before I was supposed to start. Anything to make the party go smoothly. We were stationed in the backyard and when grandpa came in he was greeted with Las Mananitas then Vicente Fernandez. The first hour we were playing Mexican oldies then an hour in we just mostly did cumbias the rest of the night. It was a catered party with a lot of desserts. The cake had a picture of the man of the hour. It was a festive group that liked to dance. All the requests they wanted I was able to find them on my computer or I had to stream them via the internet.

  It was a cold night but the dance floor was hot. It was my kind of party. They offered me cake like three different times. They were the perfect hosts. We had the music at a good volume and we did not get any complaints.
