Fernando Ferrer in Concert ft. Theresa Perez
Don't miss this performance of two of the best young and upcoming Latin-American Singer-Songwriters!
Fernando Ferrer has been a young pioneer among the new breed of singer-songwriters in Puerto Rico. He first appeared on stage in Lares '97 and has since made himself known throughout Puerto Rico, the Caribbean, the U.S. and Mexico. Originally from San Germn, Ferrer draws from the Nueva Trova giants of the 70's but has also developed a language of his own within his work. Hi percussive guitar technique and impressive vocal abilities together with the good use of subtle yet powerful melody and poetic imagery puts his small-towners music in a much wider context. His style is best compared to the works of Tracy Chapman, Annie Di Franco, Antonio Cabn Vale, Silvio Rodrguez and Nick Drake. In January '02 he published the self-produced debut album Despues de Tanto Tiempo in Santo Domingo. In it he merged his prior influences as a drummer, his love for jazz and his passion for folk music around the globe. The end result is a soothing sound that although undeniably latin overcomes all territorial boundaries. In November 2007 he finished his first U.S.-Mexico tour which included cities like: New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Chicago, San Francisco, Los Angeles, San Diego, Tijuana, Hermosillo, Puebla, Mexico City, among others.
