Two-time Emmy Award-winning violinist Damien Escobar brings his unmistakable sound to City Winery Boston on December 18 for an intimate night with the artist known as the “King of Strings.”

For nearly two decades, Escobar has challenged expectations of what a contemporary violinist can accomplish. A Juilliard graduate by age 12, the Jamaica, Queens native’s remarkable journey took him from performing for commuters in New York City subways to major stages around the world, with performances for everyone from Oprah to the Obamas.

Along the way, Escobar has sold more than one million records, earned an NAACP Award nomination, found success on the Billboard charts, and scored a #1 song with “Taboo.” His album Gemini represents another chapter in a career dedicated to bringing instrumental music into the mainstream.

Experience the charisma, passion, and musicianship of Damien Escobar up close with dinner and wine at City Winery Boston.
