Nachito Herrera

Everwood Farmstead Foundation launches its 8th season of the Artist Series with Nachito Herrera on Saturday, June 29th.

Ignacio Nachito Herrera stunned Cuban audiences at the age of 12, performing Rachmaninoff's Concerto No 2 with the Havana Symphony Orchestra. Since then, Nachito has played at many of the worlds finest concert halls and prestigious jazz festivals. Named City Pages Best Jazz Artist for several years, he has also received several Minnesota Music Awards. Nachito has performed with multiple orchestras, including the Minnesota Orchestra, Metropolitan Orchestra, Minnesota Youth Symphony and Cuban National Symphony.

Hotter than the burning tip of a contraband Cuban cigar. Stronger than a straight shot of Havana rum. As exciting as a World Series game, with El Duque on the mound. Explosive. Crowd-pleasing. Rhythmically intense. Romantic. Dynamic. Jaw-droppingly good.
