SKA CUBANO Far from the usual merengue-like monotony of ska, this Anglo-Cubano unit mixes Skatelites-quality grooves (think Ernest Ranglin), the dissonant horn blasts of impulsive cumbia, and some terrific Cuban rumbas, complete with a Beny More sound-alike singer, into a percussion-mad Caribbean mix that even ska-phobic jazz fans can dig (although it’s probably too rich for KROQ). The Watercourt at CALIFORNIA PLAZA, 350 S. Grand Ave., dwntwn.; Sat., July 8, 8 p.m.; free. (213) 687-2159.  07/07/06 >> go there
