John Roberts y Pan Blanco is an original-sounding ensemble of energetic musicians that inspires the audience to dance and enjoy life! Many years of national and international touring, recording and performing experiences with funk, soul, salsa, orchestral, West African and jazz ensembles have led to this project. With vocals in Spanish, English and Portuguese, this group is melding high-energy funk and African and Latin grooves with soulful instrumental solos, aimed at sharing musical and cultural diversity with the audience.

A family-friendly band, John Roberts y Pan Blanco brings their performance  to the Sheldon Community Arts Hangar on Saturday, November 15, 2025.

John Roberts y Pan Blanco was made possible with funding by Rasmuson Foundation through the Harper Arts Touring Fund, and is administered by the Alaska State Council on the Arts.  This event is also funded in part by the National Endowment for the Arts, Alaska529, and MTA.  A special thank you to the Talkeetna Roadhouse for hosting our guests!
