Press Reviews San Francisco Weekly, November 1999 Wamies'99 Nomination It's also been enough to vault the group to the top of the Bay Area's rock en espaņol scene, with the band already playing veneus like the Fillmore and Slim's. Orixa is a bigger fish than just that scene, though: As anyone who has heard the band knows, it rocks harder than many of this year's "rock in English" nominees as well.
