Lake Atitlan Stories

Here is a random assortment of pictures from our last gig.

This is a nice black and white om Naty and me.

These next 2 pics are the band with lots of friends sitting in.

Here is a pic with Cura and Suria adding vocals and beauty to the song.

Kumbaya con Cura!

We had a few friends add in some capwera, very fun.

More capwera

Thats the current update of my life in Guatemala on Lake Atitlan, more later…

Here is some shabby but cool video footage from our show last Saturday. With my mutt hand drumming style, Natalia’s High energy latin folk style and Chus’ mixture of Mexico and other latin styles the band is growing into a nice mixture of music from the Americas.

Over the last few months I have been playing music with a blues band in Panajechel, Guatemala on Lake Atitlan. The musicians are Kevin on guitar and vocals, he is our fearless leader. Slick on hamonica and vocals he has been playing with Kevin for several years. Mike on bass guitar. And of course me, Jopa on drum set.

This first band picture is Kevin on the left playing guitar and Slick on the right playing harmonica, me in the back on drums.

Next we have a pic of Mike on the Bass, Kevin on Guitar and me in back on drums.

And here we have me kickin it on the drum set, this is a total POS drumset, but here on Lake Atitlan there is not much music equipment, so we are happy to have a drumset at all.

Peace, more soon…
