FestivaLink.net presents The Robert Mirabal Band
Living with his family at the foot of sacred Taos Mountain, Robert maintains a traditional life, keeping the centuries-old customs of the Taos Pueblo people. Described as a Native American 'Renaissance man' — musician, composer, painter, master craftsman, poet, actor, screenwriter, horseman and farmer — Robert has traveled extensively and played his music all over the world.
Whether as a composer, songwriter or musician, Robert has won many honors including two-time Native American Artist of the Year, three-time Songwriter of the Year, and a 2006 Grammy Award for Sacred Ground, Best Native American Album of the Year.
In this show, Robert brought his unique rock performance to a hometown crowd, who relished the band's rebellious and playful spirit.
Players: Robert Mirabal (vocals, flutes, percussion) Patrick Shendo-Mirabal (vocals, flutes, percussion, tribal drums) Larry Mitchell (guitars) Paul Fowler (piano, keyboards, vocals)
