Event description
Trio Los Vigilantes will recreate the glory of La Epoca de Oro, the Golden Age of Latin American music and cinema, at the Allen Public Library paid in part by the Texas Commission on the Arts.
Combining Spanish melodrama and sentimentality with American jazz and pop, Los Vigilantes is a rare group that sings classic songs in the tradition of the trios of old.
Trio Los Vigilantes was organized in Austin, Texas by Isaac Peña. When Isaac met Mexico City expatriate Luis Angel Ibáñez, their mutual affinity for the Bolero became the cornerstone of Trio Los Vigilantes. While searching for a tenor to carry the melody, they found John Pointer, who's passion of his voice and his command of Italian (and its similarity to Spanish) made him the ideal candidate for Trio Los Vigilantes.
No ticket or registration is required.
