Pikes Peak Library District World Music Series: Quetzal
Friday, June 12, 2009 at 7:00 p.m.

Performance: Pikes Peak Library District World Music Series: Quetzal

Quetzal's music combines Mexican and Cuban rhythms, jazz, and rock behind the powerful vocals of siblings Martha and Gabriel Gonzalez. The group was formed in East Los Angeles by guitarist-composer Quetzal Flores, who wanted the band to not only have a unique sound, but also a social consciousness. They have been hailed by Los Lobos and others as the new torch bearers of Chicano music. Sponsored by the CC Summer Festival of the Arts, the World Music Series of Pikes Peak Library District, and KRCC Concerts.

Location: Armstrong Quad
