Latin rhythms can sway, and Grammy winners Grupo Fantasma certainly had a crowd moving Saturday at Texas State. Matthew Wright tells us more, in this Bobcat Update.
The dance floor was packed in the L-B-J Student Center Ballroom Saturday night, as Grupo Fantasma cranked out an array of Latin tunes. Although she hadn't heard any of their music prior to the show, Texas State senior Isabel Martinez said she wouldn't miss an opportunity to see a Grammy-winning band perform on campus
SOUNDBITE: "Exposing yourself to anything you don't know is always good"
Grupo Fantasma is based in Austin and has played at Texas State before. The band's singer and timbales player, Jose Galeano, was excited about returning to perform in San Marcos, and he couldn't wait to get the crowd moving.
SOUNDBITE: "They said hey you guys are playing in San Marcos at Texas State. I'm like fantastic! Let's do it! Now here we are on this beautiful evening, I hope everybody is ready to come out and dance!"
Grupo Fantasma's next stop will be Tucson, Arizona, but they'll be back to perform in Austin at Auditorium Shores on April 22nd. For Bobcat Update, I'm Matthew Wright.
