Spanish guitarist Twanguero (Diego García) brings his Backroads of the Americas solo tour to St. Paul's Episcopal Church on on Sunday, May 24 at 5:00 PM, for an intimate evening of acoustic guitar music.

Presented as a raw, solo listening experience, Backroads of the Americas traces musical connections between Spanish guitar tradition, Latin American folk, and American roots music. With no loops or effects, Twanguero performs entirely solo — one guitar, two hands, and a rich, cinematic sound shaped by rhythm, melody, and storytelling.

A Latin Grammy–winning guitarist, Twanguero has recorded and performed internationally across Europe, Latin America, and the United States. His music blends the elegance of Spanish guitar with the soul of blues, folk, and Latin rhythms, offering audiences a deeply immersive and accessible experience.

Whether you’re a fan of acoustic music, guitar craftsmanship, or global musical traditions, this concert offers a rare opportunity to experience a world-class artist in a close, acoustically rich setting.

Doors open at 4.15 PM. Concert starts at 5 PM

“One of the most fascinating guitarists I’ve ever heard.”NPR
