Diego "Twanguero" Garcia Guitar Concert

November 20, 2025, 7:00pm

Described as a “fire-breathing guitar hero” and dubbed “Spain’s King of Twang” by Guitar Player magazine, Latin Grammy winner Diego García, known as Twanguero, brings passion, poetry, and jaw-dropping skill to Minneapolis. Renowned for his fingerpicking finesse, signature twang, and genre-defying sound, Twanguero blends classical Spanish guitar with Latin rhythms, country, rockabilly, jazz, and even surf music. He prefers a more romantic description of himself: a “3-in-1 guitarist deeply in love with his instruments.” Twanguero has performed and recorded with a dazzling roster of international artists, including Andrés Calamaro, Mercedes Sosa, Diego El Cigala, Wyclef Jean, Fito Páez, and Juanes. His work spans stage, studio, and screen, with soundtrack contributions for film, radio, and television across Spain and the Americas.
