The TropARKana: An Evening with Raul Malo
13th Annual Fall Fundraiser for The Ark
Followers of Raul Malo's eclectic career know his deep love of country, rock, jazz and Latin music shines through in his glorious voice. And what a voice! Its crystal purity is simply unmatched by any other singer's today, and has been rapturously described by The Wall Street Journal as “exquisite.” Of Raul's new album, Lucky One, the Chicago Reader writes: “it plays to Malo's strengths: Hollywood-style Afro- Cuban songs, Tex-Mex stompers, romantic ballads, countrypolitan honky-tonk. He ain't reinventing the wheel, but he sure can roll it smooth.”
After close to 20 years of making music, Raul is having more fun than ever. And it shows. He was recently nominated for Artist Of The Year by the Americana Music Association. He's long been a favorite with Ark audiences. Don't miss his only Ark show in 2009.
It is not just Raul's performance that will excite you. The Ark Fall Fundraiser has long been regarded as a fantastically fun event. This year our theme builds upon the atmosphere of the famous Havana night club, Tropicana. Think hot tropical night, lush colors, palm trees, luscious food and beverages, topped with 'get your body moving' rhythms”¦Ark style. Sorry, no showgirls on catwalks, but a fabulous time to be had by all!
Wear your hot Havana tropical night attire - from colorful tropical floral shirts to snazzy night club glitzwear.
Proceeds from the evening will benefit The Ark, helping us continue to present the best folk and roots music to be heard anywhere in the world, over 300 nights a year.
