Wailing

Song - Amazing Grace by Carlos Reyes

In 2011 I heard this man Carlos Reyes for the very first time at Doobie Brothers concert

And if you listen to the song above "Amazing Grace" you will understand why 

He can wail on that violin...

And a fun fact is that he lives in my home town of Walnut Creek!

"One of the most popular performers to grace the Sierra Nevada Big room stage, Carlos Reyes, returns Tuesday.

Paraguay-born harp and violin artist, Reyes will be backed by his hot band, Electric Symphony, as he plays sweet Latin American ballads to lowdown blues and jazz.

“Chico’s been just wonderful to me,” Reyes said in a recent interview. “It’s great that Sierra Nevada keeps putting on such nice concerts. I’m very happy they do such a great job of bringing such a variety of people.”

Known as a recording artist, producer, engineer, harpist and violinist, Reyes has been breaking musical education at the age of 3 on the violin. He was declared a child prodigy at an early age when his father, a musical and national hero in Paraguay, urged him to learn the complicated 36-strings native Paraguayan harp."
