As mentioned before, I will have live musical performances during the Beyond the Wall Event/ Distribution in El Talon, Colombia on July 17th, 2009. I think it would be a great opportunity for young local musicians to perform and get their music heard. El Talon is located in the municipality of Turbaco and there, you will find all kinds of musicians. I have confirmed the performances of two talented music groups (as of June 10th) from Turbaco. The first one is called "Grupo de Gaita Costumbres del Folclor de Turbaco". They play gaita, a folkloric genre of music in the carribean coast of Colombia. The group is very interesting because they dance and play their music. They are all teenagers. Here is a video of them performing:
I also have the pleasure of having the local band called "Madera Viva". This group composes and performs its own music. They are all young and are quite popular in Turbaco. Below is also a video of them performing:
I can't be any happier to have these two great musical groups because not only do they play very well, they have an opportunity to be heard in an important event.
