El Taller Latino Americano is proud to present Ruben Gonzalez and the GONZALEZ Band. Ruben's music is a journey that crosses borders between distant places and spaces: South and North America, politics and poetry, pain and humor. His lyrics tell stories, make observations and sound good even if you don't speak Spanish. Accompanying Ruben in the GONZALEZ Band will be Michael Wimberly, Michael Campbell, Baba Don Eaton and Domenica Fosatti; as well as Guest Artist: Natalio.
