Grupo Tan Tan - Live at The Echo Bridge
Dear Friend of the Echo Bridge, The Echo Bridge Appreciation Society is happy to announce the upcoming seventh concert in our summer pop-up concert series. This one popped up quickly and is happening this coming Sunday! We hope you can join us for what promises to be a very special night under the bridge. On Sunday, July 25, we are honored to be welcoming Grupo Tan Tan to the Echo Bridge. Grupo Tan Tan is a spin off of Los Callejeros de San Anto and a sideband of PiƱata Protest. The group started in 2020 during the peak of Covid. Festivals, bars, and restaurants were closed which left Los Callejeros de San Anto unable to play however there was an ongoing demand for serenades, small parties in peoples homes, and funeral performances so the group took on a tuba player and stripped the band down to its most basic essence a return to Tex-Mex musics mostly acoustic origins.
One year later Grupo Tan Tan took on its own name and sealed its identity. There is a $20 suggested donation for each sitting area (that is 2 people per $20 donation). The proceeds will go entirely to Grupo Tan Tan. The concert might be filmed and we welcome documentation/taping from the viewers. We encourage you to bring a blanket or lightweight folding chairs and to wear comfortable footwear for a short walk down a trail from Tandem to the Bridge. PLEASE NOTE: every single dollar spent for the tickets to these events is given to the artists performing. However, If you cant donate for some reason but really want to come, please reach out to us.
