Save the date for this special live music event with our local guitarist Craig Einhorn and his friend Pablo Figueroa, an award-winning guitarist from Argentina. The two will play a full evening of tango guitar music for us to dance to! From their joint bio:

"While living in Argentina for several years Craig Einhorn and Pablo Figueroa met in a folk music club in Buenos Aires, Argentina called La Peña del Colorado. They became friends and eventually formed a bicultural collaboration involving the performance of Argentine music styles as well as other Latin American Styles and American music. Their repertoire is diverse and includes unfamiliar and familiar genres. Pablo is a true virtuoso of the classical guitar with a specific technique that can only be developed in Argentina. Craig is a bilingual singer, versatile guitarist, and percussionist."

You can see a live performance of Pablo and singer Sergio Veloso at the Balvanera Tango Festival in 2014 here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I_LTc7GJkjE
