Internationally celebrated musicians, Francisco Roldán and Danny Mallon, come together to create a multicultural music experience.
This eclectic duo presents a variety of styles including Bambuco, Blues, Danza, Joropo, Porro, Tango and more, showcasing music from Columbia, Cuba, the Dominican Republic, Spain, the United States and Venezuela.
Instruments Of the People, formed in 2009 by Roldán and Mallon, encompasses the global pairing of guitar and percussion throughout the ages. These easily obtainable instruments allowed a way for people to gather together and create music in communities around the world. IOP is a reflection of this living tradition and the people who continue to create a rich tapestry of musical culture.
