Pantxoa eta Peio, popular folk singers from the Basque Country, will be performing in a concert Sunday March 28 at San Francisco Basque Cultural Center.
For years, the duo’s songs have been a mainstay for Basque music lovers. With their soothing, melodic voices, the two singers have extolled the virtues of work, love and family. Their lyrics have also been political, urging people to stand up for what’s right and speak out when things go wrong.
You can see Pantxoa eta Peio’s music videos on their YouTube channel.
At the Chino show, the two will perform with accordionist Iñaki Diéguez and singer and multi-instrumentalist Mixel Ducau. Diéguez has played with the popular Cirque du Soleil. Ducau, meanwhile, has performed with Errobi, Zaldibobo & Bidaia, among other musical groups.
The concert is at 2:30 p.m. Lunch will be served at noon. Cost of lunch is $15 for members and $25 for non-members.
