Los Tangueros del Oeste - backyard concert in Berkeley Hills

Los Tangueros del Oeste was founded by bassist/composer Sascha Jacobsen. Hailing from an illustrious musical family dating back as least five generations to a bassist for the Moscow Opera in the early 19th century, Sascha Jacobsen is a bassist who loves expanding on traditional forms. He’s explored his passion for tango in ensembles like The Musical Art Quintet and Trio Garufa, and his latest project Los Tangueros del Oeste might be his most adventurous yet.

As 2022 Latin Grammy nominees, Los Tangueros del Oeste are steeped in the nuevo tango styles of Astor Piazzolla, Gotan Project, and Bajo Fondo. The group blends tango with beats and textures from hip-hop and electronica with flamenco influences filtered through an improvisational lens. Their singular nuevo tango sound is cool, impassioned, sensuous, seductive, and utterly dance-inducing.
