The evening opens at 6 p.m. with Chayito Champion and Keli Rosa Cabunoc, two San Antonio-based artists who joined forces in the Texas Folklife Apprenticeship Program in 2023. Chayito is an acclaimed, worldwide performer as a Flamenco dancer. Keli Rosa Cabunoc is a cultural worker, scholar, and touring musician who has played Son Jarocho, a traditional music from Veracruz, Mexico, for more than 20 years. This unique pairing brings together two musical and cultural worlds that exist within Chicano and Tejano culture.
Max Baca and Los Texmaniacs are the past, present, and future of Conjunto music. Combine Tex-Mex Conjunto, Texas rock, blues, and R&B riffs, and you’ve got GRAMMY® award-winning Los Texmaniacs groove. Los Texmaniacs are the new worldwide kings of Texas Roots music, feeding the masses with only the best in musical fare, from a wide-ranging experience touring and recording with Flaco Jimenez of Texas Tornados fame, Los Super Seven, and even the Rolling Stones. While Max Baca has individually participated in eleven GRAMMY award-winning projects, the band themselves won their first GRAMMY in 2010 and a nomination for their last Smithsonian Folkways recording in 2019, "Borders y Bailes" featuring Lyle Lovett and Rick Trevino.
Public programs at the Bullock Museum explore relevant history and celebrate the culture that has shaped our modern world. Through engaging discussions, live performances, and experiential activities visitors are invited to see local connections and discover how Texas fits into a broader national story.
