Este Vato and El Tule at Jovita's

Este Vato and El Tule plus Girl Guitar at Jovita's on Friday August 28, 2009 in Austin, Texas.

Este Vato has steadily been building their presence in Austin with performances at Flamingo Cantina, Trophy's and MySpace Latino/Remezcla En Tu Cuidad Tour at the Mohawk and others key venues. Este Vato combines Cumbia Rock, Latin and Fusion with a beat that you can't help but dance to. They are also working on finalizing their new CD.



El Tule is a well established Austin favorite with performances at Pachanga Latino Music Festival in 2009, Jovita's and more recently repeat performances at Live Music@Central Market. El Tule plays a combination of Salsa, Latin and Cumbia music which you can definitely dance to or just sit back and enjoy. El Tule is also working on their second CD, "Pa Bailar". Rock y Roll Radio has El Tule's "La Sirena" on our playlist. Check it out.



Guitar Girl is the name of a business/school, founded by Mandy Rowden, which specializes in providing guitar lessons and songwriting instruction to women. The students then have the opportunity to perform at various venues under Guitar Girl. I'm sorry to say that I don't know much about Guitar Girl and hope this small paragraph does them justice but I really like the concept.
