Helado Negro – Island Universe Story at Ordway Concert Hall, St. Paul (21 March 2015)

Helado Negro is actually the musical nom de plume of Roberto Carlos Lange, a South Florida native of Ecuadorian descent, who along with some carefully chosen friends brought the world premiere performance of his Island Universe Story (Cuentos del Universo Solitario) to the Ordway Concert Hall in St. Paul.

Swervedriver at the Turf Club, Saint Paul (12 Mar 2015)
