Santa Fe have announced the headlining concert event of the
Santa Fe Winter Fiesta. Grupo Fantasma brings its Grammy Award-winning Latin-meets-funk sound to
Santa Fe, Saturday, Jan. 28 at the

Hailing from Austin, Texas, Grupo Fantasma has earned a global reputation for its high energy live shows and features a 10-piece orchestra, bringing together many genres to create an amazing blend of afro-Latin music. Concert tickets to the performance are $30, or $20 with a 2012 Winter Fiesta Adventure Pass.
After winning "Best Latin Rock, Alternative or Urban Album" for its latest album, "El Existential," Grupo Fantasma guitarist Adrian Quesada said, "Considering the DIY and homegrown effort we've built over the last decade, including the immense undertaking and process of producing this album all by ourselves, it feels unbelievable to finally go home as winners. And with so many genres combined into this one category with such fierce competition, it's even more of an honor and statement of our hard work over the last ten years."
