Thank you for giving me the opportunity to express myself so freely.
There's nothing like it!
You never know where I'll be seeing you next... Chelsea
What an amazing evening, once again, of your awesome energetics and
incredible music with family and friends. It was beyond the beyond good! We
all thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and thank-you both again for bringing your
gifts to us in this city. Unbelievable your ability to magnetize in so many
excellent musicians to jam with you on that little stage at Kino's.
It always astounds me the beauty of spirit of all your family. It's always a
joy to see Ja and witness her beauty in dance and being. Give her a huge
hug for us.
Please , if you have a chance..keep me posted on your
whereabouts.
BIG LOVE AND HUGS TO YOU

Just add a new video from year 2011 at Trout Lake,
Vancouver - Canada
Born in San Jorge, Argentina, Pancho wrote poems from a young age. He
moved to Europe to follow his dreams of playing the guitar and sharing his
songs with the world. After touring in many countries, he became a
troubadour style musician in the 80's in Sweden.
Playing with Gypsies
in the South of France, he learned rumbas and flamenco. His compositions
reflect these influences of flamenco and other folk rhythms. After years of
exchange with other musicians, his original music has a wide diversity of
styles.
Sal, who was born in England and raised
in Canada, met Pancho in Cuzco, Peru, and from then on together as a family
and musical duo have established a name for themselves. Sal compliments the
music with her vocals, accordion, shakers, chachas, bombo and guitar.
They have a unique poetic style of translating simultaneously from Spanish
to English.
You can enjoy Pancho and Sal at Folk Festivals,
Community Centers, schools, restaurants, dance shows, concerts in the parks
and numerous other events.
Rio Samaya Band is a creation of the
musical duo, Pancho and Sal.
The Rio Samaya Band is a traveling band
that shares the stage with dancers, singers,
musicians, jugglers, poets and an
audience ready to have a collective experience of joy
and fun.
Rio Samaya Band has a heart that beats
in the present, fusion of music and talent, lovers
of magic, full moons, forests, rivers,
oceans and nights with friends around the fire.
Every show is unique,
unscripted,
unrehearsed.
The Rio Samaya Band
tunes in
to channel music, to bring life, love
and peace to everyone.
