Gina Chavez is Coming to Wharton Center
She will perform an all-Spanish show on Saturday, February 26, at 8:00PM.
Latin Grammy nominee and 12-time Austin Music Awards winner Gina Chávez is coming to Wharton Center Friday, February 25, at 8:00PM for a passionate collection of songs traversing cumbia, indie folk, blues, and Latin pop. She will perform an all-Spanish show on Saturday, February 26, at 8:00PM. Tickets are on sale now through the official Wharton Center Ticket Office, online at whartoncenter.com, or by calling 517.432.2000 or 1.800.WHARTON.
Chávez, the subject of an hour-long PBS special and whose NPR Tiny Desk Concert boasts over 1.3 million views, is able to blend the sounds of the Americas with incredible musicianship and grace. Her bilingual album, Up.Rooted, topped the Amazon and Latin iTunes charts, and NPR's Felix Contreras said "I dare you to walk away and not become a fan."
She is a co-founder of the Niñas Arriba College Fund for Latin American girls, providing underprivileged youth with college scholarships and a six-month paid internship upon graduation for over 10 years now. After co-founding the fund, Chávez told Arts In Context, "When your passion meets the world's greatest needs, that's where you're supposed to be."
