Jose González
This event has passed.
Swedish singer-songwriter Jose González celebrates the 20th anniversary of his acclaimed debut, Veneer, with a solo performance, co-presented by the Rhythm Foundation and Poplife, at the Miami Beach Bandshell on Wednesday, May 1. The album was recorded with the most basic equipment in a cramped Gothenburg flat and managed to achieve platinum status, selling well over 1 million copies worldwide. Aside from a brief trumpet solo and the faintest hint of percussion, the record showcases only González's hushed vocals and acoustic guitar.
To commemorate this significant milestone, González returns to select US stages with a repertoire of the album's songs and a selection of other classics, including his own compositions and his interpretations of works by other artists.
