This is new date after Aug 1st show was cancelled.

For the first time in Dallas, one of Colombia’s most powerful voices comes to our backyard. Nidia Góngora—legendary singer, composer, and guardian of Pacific coastal traditions—will perform in our backyard. Opening the night is Dallas-based Colombian DJ and producer Elkin Pautt, setting the tone with deep rhythms and textures from across the Afro-diasporic spectrum.

NIDIA GÓNGORA
Known internationally for her collaborations with producer Quantic, and most recently with artists like Feid and poet Shirley Campbell Barr, Nidia Góngora bridges generations and geographies.

More than a performer, Góngora is a cultural force. Her music draws from the deep waters of Colombia’s Pacific coast, where the marimba, call-and-response vocals, and ancestral memory converge. In a tradition where women’s voices lead the way, her songs carry the weight of history and the joy of celebration.

ELKIN PAUTT
Elkin is a Colombian music producer, based in Dallas TX via Brooklyn, NY. Since early childhood captivated by music, curiosity made him his own teacher. West African influenced music that incorporates Electronica and analog synthesis makes a strong combination of sounds reflected in his work. His DJ sets travel around the world exploring exotic sounds from Afro-house to soukous, Latin grooves to Afrobeats, Middle Eastern, Mediterranean, and more.
