Waiting for Waits Concerts

Waiting for Waits has organised two concerts for the first weekend in March.

On Saturday 6 at 9.30 p.m, in the headquarters of ARCA in Palma, there will be a concert by two English singer-songwriters. The artists are Robyn Hitchcock, who performed in Sa Pobla in 1995 within the first edition of the "Festival de Jazz" organised by Pep Crespí; and Neil Halsted, the leader of the Mojave 3 band that performed on the Island, on November 2002, within the first anniversary of the series "Nits Angleses al Lisboa". Tickets for the concert cost 15 euros, or 13 if you make a prior reservation by email: waitingforwaits@yahoo.es.

More over, the day before, Friday 5 at 7.30 p.m., in the Sa Nostra Cultural Centre in Palma, there will be an special concert dedicated to Townes Van Zandt, considered to be one of the most outstanding "trobadours" of American rooted music of the second half of the 20th century. Townes Van Zandt songs will be performed by four singers: Michael Weston King, Mojave 3, David Ogilvy and Nacho Vegas. Vince McCann, the promoter of the famous hall The 12 Bar, will also participate in the concert, so will Sylvie Simmons, journalist of the Mojo, music magazine, who will present the concert. The entrance is free.
