Frank Maza TourInaugural Artist Spotlight Event featuring Frank Maza

Frank Maza and his father, Grammy Award winning producer Javier Limón, are currently on a world tour celebrating the release of Frank's debut album, Back Then. Raised between Madrid and Boston, Maza grew up immersed in the music of Bebo Valdés, Paco de Lucía, Nat King Cole, Enrique Morente, and Leonard Cohen. His distinctive voice draws upon these influences, blending poetic storytelling and American songwriting with the rhythms and traditions of the Spanish-speaking world.

Cafe Wha? on November 4 at 7pm.
