HUAYUCALTIA 25th ANNIVERSARY CONCERT SATURDAY MAY 29 featuring members of Conjunto Jardín

Our sister group Huayucaltia -- Conjunto Jardín's Cindy Harding (Ximenita Hendrix) is an integral member of this fine band along with Peruvian guitarist/composer Ciro Hurtado (who recorded all three Conjunto Jardin albums), Hernan Pinilla, Antonio Ezkauriatza and Julio Ledesma -- are celebrating their 25th anniversary with a concert at the Ford Amphitheatre Saturday, May 29. Gary (El Pulpo) joins the group on keyboards and accordion, Libby (La Bruja) will be contributing both vocally and instrumentally, and the concert will also feature a reunion of Sabiá, the influential '80s nueva canción group that featured Cindy, Libby and Gary. Ericka Verba and Mari Riddle will complete the Sabiá contingent and add their vocal artistry to some of Huayucaltia's repertoire as well. This will be a historic, one-of-a-kind show!
