Che Apalache + Bourbon Tasting

ABOUT CHE APALACHE

What began as a bluegrass band formed by an American music teacher and three of his Argentinian students has evolved into the new musical genre “Latingrass”: the fusion of Latin American and Appalachian music. The ensemble covers everything from Bach to nursery rhymes, puts a wicked spin on “The Ballad of Jed Clampett,” plays Latino folk songs as if they were bluegrass, and brings down houses with their politically charged and gospel-styled “The Wall.”

LAND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

Whidbey Island Center for the Arts would like to begin by acknowledging that we gather on the ancestral homelands, originally known as Tscha-kole-chy (SHA-KOL-CHI) in Lushootseed (LU-SHOOT-SEED), of the Coastal Salish Peoples, on the lands of the lower Skagit, Tulalip (tuh·lay·luhp), Swinomish (SWIN-ə-mish), Snohomish (snō-hō-mish), Stillaguamish (still-uh-GWAH-mish), and Suquamish (soo-kwah-mish), who have lived in the Salish Sea basin since time immemorial and have hunted, fished, gathered, and taken care of these lands.

We respect their sovereignty, their right to self-determination, and we honor their sacred spiritual connection with the land and water.

Please join us in expressing our deepest respect and gratitude to the indigenous people of this territory and for their enduring care and protection of the land in which we currently occupy and share through the Treaty of Point Elliott signed by 82 tribes in Múckl-te-óh (Mukilteo) on January 22, 1855.
