Lone Piñon: CD Release

A conjunto of young musicians from Santa Fe and Albuquerque, dedicated to the study and revitalization of the region's musical roots, plays in honor of their new release.

A conjunto of young musicians from Santa Fe and Albuquerque, Lone Piñon is dedicated to the study and revitalization of our region's musical roots.  In 2013, founders Noah Martinez (guitarrón, quinta huapanguera, tololoche, bajo sexto)  and Jordan Wax (fiddle, accordion, vocals) began an exploration of violin-based Northern New Mexico dance music rarely heard since the 1950s and quickly discovered New Mexico’s musical landscape to be a rich tapestry of intercultural connections and stylistic crossroads. Tonight, joined by Leticia Gonzales on violin, they celebrate the release of their third album, Dále Vuelo, which highlights the double-fiddle traditions of the Rio Grande Valley and their kinship with regional Mexican styles.
