Dear Friends of the Echo Bridge,
The Echo Bridge Appreciation Society is excited to announce a very last minute show with Santiago Jimenez Jr. this coming SATURDAY night October 9! That's right, we have two shows this weekend!
This show WILL be filmed by an award winning PBS travel show. We are asking all ticket-holders to be seated in place by 5:45-6 PM.
Pre-Game meet time at Tandem starts at 5 pm this time. The first song will be played 3 times for filming purposes and then the show will continue on as normal.
"Santiago Jiménez Jr. (aka Santiago Henriquez Jiménez) is a folk musician who received a National Heritage Fellowship in 2000 for lifetime achievement in traditional Tex-Mex/folk music,[1] and a National Medal of Arts in 2016. He has been nominated for three Grammys."
There is a $15 suggested donation per person. The proceeds will go entirely to Santiago Jimenez. The concert will be filmed and we welcome documentation/taping from the viewers.
We encourage you to bring a blanket or lightweight folding chair and to wear comfortable footwear for a short walk down a trail from Tandem to the Bridge. Tickets are limited! It will sell out quick !
PLEASE NOTE: every single dollar spent for the tickets to these events is given to the artists performing. However, If you can't donate for some reason but really want to come, please reach out to us directly.

A little backstory on the bridge: It's actually called the Mrs. Frank W Sorrell Bridge.
