Acoustic Jungle is extremely excited for the two upcoming shows (5:55 & 8:25) at One World Theatre on Friday, August 24th with six-time Grammy-nominated guitarist, Ottmar Liebert. Ottmar Liebert is perhaps one the world's most famous nylon string guitarist. His debut release, Nouveau Flamenco is the biggest-selling guitar album in history. Ottmar has also released over 20 albums and received more than 30 gold and platinum awards.
Acoustic Jungle is also a part the musical line-up of the Dripping with Taste Food and Wine Festival in Dripping Springs, TX on September 8th. The event will take place at the beautiful Texas Hill Country Olive Company. Acoustic Jungle will take the stage at 4:15. This spectacular event is sure to attract a large crowd and is something you will not want to miss.
Oh, and while we're at it, Acoustic Jungle has two new songs in the live set. We are proud to present Indigo Sky and Alegria.
January 13, 2012 Acoustic Jungle is honored to share the bill on April 20th with master guitarist and jazz legend, Earl Klugh. There will be two performances (5:55 & 8:25) hosted at Austin's beautiful One World Theatre. No ticket is required to hear Acoustic Jungle, but you will need to purchase a ticket to hear Earl Klugh. (That's how it works when you have 23 top 10 records and 4 #1 selling albums Billboard's Jazz Album chart.) Earl Klugh is a major influence for Acoustic Jungle and we are always delighted to come back to One World Theatre.
Additionally, Acoustic Jungle has been invited to the line-up for the 19th annual BALCONES JAZZ FESTIVAL. This is also a free show at the spectacular outdoor amphitheater at the Wonderland of Americas in San Antonio. Showtime will be 7:00PM on Friday, August 3, 2012.
September 7, 2011 Acoustic Jungle will be back at Austin's beautiful One World Theatre on September 9th, as the opening act for the legendary jazz powerhouse, "The Rippingtons". After sharing the bill with some of the top acoustic guitar acts in the world, such as Jesse Cook and Strunz and Farah, Acoustic Jungle is delighted to come back to One World Theatre. As this record setting Texas heat and drought hopefully come to end, Acoustic Jungle is looking forward to kicking off the Gruene Music and Wine Festival on Thursday, October 6th.
January 10, 2011 Acoustic Jungle ended 2010 on a high note with the release of their new album Pirates & Gypsies, and their debut performance at Austin's beautiful One World Theatre as the opening band for Latin music icon Jose Feliciano. The band looks forward to an exciting 2011 and continues to cook up some tasty new material.
March 27, 2008 Acoustic Jungle will be performing the opening ceremonies reception of the NCAA Final 4 Tournament in San Antonio on April 3… hopefully playing for our Texas Longhorns!
October 17, 2007 The past few months have been a truly exciting time in Acoustic Jungle's five years of existence. The band has added two of Austin's finest musicians and has been performing at an impressive array of first-class venues, in addition to being hired to perform for a variety of special events.
A "bigger sound" is brought to the band by the many talents of Greg Williams. He is undoubtedly one of the best saxophone players you will hear anywhere, but his talents go beyond. He also plays flute, guitar, percussion, and just about any instrument you put in front of him. Just ask our new percussionist, Sevylla. He's quick to grab a shaker off of her percussion stand, as he simultaneously belts out amazing one handed sax leads without missing a note or a beat.
We are happy to have Sevylla del Mazo laying down some serious rhythms. Her Cuban heritage brings an authentic, yet creative style to Acoustic Jungle; while her beaming charisma and great stage presence are a treat for both the men and the ladies! What a deal… Sevylla is also active in youth education, as a Program Specialist, for 21st Century Community Learning Center, providing after-school enrichment.
Meanwhile, first-class gigs have become the norm. Acoustic Jungle has performed for the core donors of Austin's Long Center, at the residence of local philanthropists, Mort & Bobbi Topfer, at Shady Grove, for a private function for the prestigious law firm Vinson & Elkins, and a St. Edward's University Honors Graduate/Faculty dinner. Additionally, Acoustic Jungle has performed at Clear Channel Radio, The Four Seasons, numerous weddings, corporate events, and lately a series of major fundraising functions for the following charities: Make-A-Wish Foundation, March of Dimes, and Susan Koman-Race for the Cure.
