Kike Perdomo, Jep Meléndez, Luisa Machado & Alberto Méndez, Carlos Costa’s Speaking Rhythm, Ismailah, Beljana Namoari Metje (DE) & Valtteri Keinänen (SF), Andrés Leoni (AR), Alexis W and many other international and local guests will be among the artists joining the Bimbache openART Canarias All-Stars Ensemble under the artistic direction of award-winning guitarist and community activist Torsten de Winkel.
On the fourth day of this year, our dear artistic partner and perennial inspiration María Mérida left us at the age of 96. Our family of artists will honor this one-of-a-kind voice and human being in a special segment.
