Conciertitos at La Peña: Jo Alvarez’s Demo Release!

This is a FREE event, donations encouraged to support the artist!  RSVP here!

Jo Alvarez is a bilingual, queer, loverbae of the Colombian diaspora. Forever a romantic, hopeful skeptic, Jo fuses styles like bolero, cumbia, and nueva canción with the essence of punk. Jo’s lyrics are heartfelt and deeply emotional – telling stories and turning their audience’s attention to the layers that exist within even the most mundane moments.

During this first-ever Conciertito at La Peña, Jo Alvarez will be releasing their new demo called “Reflexiónes y Esperanzas.” The songs for this demo came together over the past three years, spelling out a lot of the grief, hope, despair, and inner work that Jo has been processing through major global events, personal loss, and their mental health journey.
