The Nuevo Americana Music Festival is nestled in the heart of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains in the san luis valley. I started this festival to bring together some of New Mexico's and southern colorado's finest musicians. southern colorado and New Mexico have a rich musical culture; weaving together Spanish, Mexican and ANGLO-AMERICAN styles. I have always been inspired by the music I grew up playing, whether it be Spanish, Southwest Americana or the Cosmic Cowboy scene in Red River. My festival compiles all of this and so much more, right here in my hometown.

The feel of a family reunion filled the air. Most people knew one another and yet this was a family in which one would like to belong, that also welcomed newcomers. The crowd was upbeat, enthusiastic, and filled with joy, this could be the best music festival of the summer. There is great confidence that it will continue to grow, it’s refreshing Spanish American vibe featured music in both languages. |
