Twanguero – Sept. 28
Closing out the 2024 Riverside Sounds concert series on September 28 is the electrifying Diego Garcia, Twanguero, described as a “fire-breathing guitar hero” or “Spain’s King of Twang”. Known for his exceptional fingerpicking skills, remarkable adaptability, and unique ‘twangy’ sound, this recipient of the 2013 Latin Grammy Award Winner offers an enthralling blend of classical Spanish guitar, Latin beats, country, rockabilly, and jazz. He seamlessly merges tradition with modernity, infusing his music with distinctive flair. Twanguero has collaborated with esteemed artists including Andrés Calamaro, Mercedes Sosa, Juan Perro, Diego El Cigala, Fito Paez, Bunbury, Wycleaf Jean, Juanes, Jaime Urrutia, Ely Guerra, Raphael, Camilo Sesto, Ana Torroja, José María Cano, Yerbabuena, and Adriana Varela, among others. He has contributed to original soundtracks for TV, radio, and cinema, both in his native Spain and in the Americas. Recently, he co-founded a world music collective called Los Silverbacks, collaborating with Argentinian and Congolese artists.
