Introducing Songwriter Roundtables at the Century Room!
TKMA and the Century Room at Hotel Congress are partnering for a new monthly Songwriter Roundtable series! The action begins this month on June 13th, featuring acclaimed singer-songwriters Salvador Duran, Don Armstrong, and Eric Schaffer!
Salvador Duran immigrated to Tucson more than a decade ago. When he first came to the Old Pueblo, he had decided to abandon music for painting. However, it didn’t take long for the road he’d chosen to merge with his musical past. Since then, Duran has toured with Orkesta Mendoza and has recorded with Calexico and Iron & Wine.
Don Armstrong grew up in upstate New York and began hanging out at Caffe Lena in Saratoga Springs as a teen. Under the watchful eye of Lena Spencer, he learned through the graces of the performers passing through: Paul Clayton, Dave Van Ronk, Rev. Gary Davis, Bob Dylan, Hedy West, John Herald, Gil Robbins, Ian & Sylvia, and Utah Phillips
Raised in the swamps of New Jersey, Eric Schaffer has been recognized as one of Southern Arizona’s favorite singer/songwriters. He has been a finalist in the Great American Song Contest, the Passport To Nashville songwriting contest, a three-time Tucson Folk Festival songwriting competition finalist, and the winner of the 2022 Tumbleweed Music Festival songwriting contest. Eric performs regularly in Southern Arizona with his band The Other Troublemakers.
Tickets $10-$15. 6pm doors / 7pm show. This is a 21+ Event.
