Bob Schneider

Where: World Cafe Live

Date: 2007-04-14 22:00:00

Type:

Bob Schneider is a fixture on the Austin scene, having kicked around for years in various bands before embarking on a solo career in 1999. Schneider's musical approach as a solo artist has proven as eclectic as the diverse musical styles of his former bands -- a little bit singer/songwriter, a whole lot of bits and pieces of funk, country, rock, and folk. His scruffy good looks and strong, husky voice provide a good complement to his semi-confessional songwriting. His music is redolent of singer/songwriters of the '70s from Neil Young to Paul Simon, with a slightly more modern musical sensibility reminiscent of Beck. Schneider has a knack for creating pleasant adult alternative music with edgy lyrics about alienation, drug addiction, and lost romance. ~ Mary Grady, All Music Guide

Shiro El Arriero Concert

Date: 2007-04-20 19:00:00

Type:

Shiro El Arriero (El Arriero means "Cowboy" in Spanish) was born in Tokyo, Japan. When he was 13 years old, he became fascinated with the music of the renowned Argentine folklorist Atahualpa Yupanqui, and began to study Atahualpa's vast repertoire. In 1988, Shiro moved to New York and began performing in restaurants where many Spanish-speaking people gathered. The following year Shiro was invited to Atahualpa's home in Argentina where he received personal instruction from the folklorist himself. Since 1990 Shiro has been interpreting Atahualpa's music. He has given concerts in North and South America, Europe and Japan. He has also released three CD recordings. This event is part of the Mayor's Office of Immigrant Affairs (MOIA) Immigrant History Week.
