City Winery Chicago Presents Damien Escobar live on Sunday, December 13th at 8:30 PM! View all dates / times here Experience the power of the violin like never before when two-time Emmy Award-winning artist Damien Escobar brings two shows to City Winery Chicago on December 13. Known as the “King of Strings,” Escobar has spent nearly two decades breaking barriers and redefining what contemporary violin can sound like. The Jamaica, Queens native went from performing for commuters in New York City subways to playing for audiences around the world, serenading everyone from Oprah to the Obamas along the way. With more than one million records sold, Billboard chart success, an NAACP Award nomination, and his #1 song “Taboo,” Escobar has built a career around proving the extraordinary power of instrumental music. His album Gemini continues that mission, blending undeniable musicianship with the passion, charisma, and emotion that have become signatures of his performances. See Damien Escobar up close at City Winery Chicago for an intimate evening of electrifying musicianship, dinner, wine, and the unmistakable sound of the King of Strings.
