Hello friends! To celebrate our friend Iker Sanchez Silva's brief visit from the beautiful Spanish city of Donostia-San Sebastian, we are hosting a special St. Louis style performance for the renowned artist and orchestral conductor!
Please join us on July 30, 8:00 at Dissonant Works
Iker will be joined by Danny Pankratz on guitar and myself on synthesizer.
Damon Smith and Eric Hall will be performing solo, both absolute legends! Should be an amazing show!
