A Country Night with The White Buffalo
Last Tuesday, December 17, at the Teatro Flores, we had the pleasure of enjoying a Country rock show by Jake Smith, better known as “The White Buffalo“ on his first visit to Argentina after more than 20 years of career.
Opening the evening was the local singer, the talented Orlando Curti, what a great musician! With a wonderful voice, on his guitar, he gave an unforgettable show, with some songs that made the audience dance in the best country style.
The moment his fans had been waiting for for years has arrived. The White Buffalo took the stage alone with his guitar and started with “Wish It Was True”, with an audience with very particular clothing, hats, and cowboy boots, that made you feel like you were in the Wild West.
With “Love Song” the drummer (who would become one of the stars of the night with his wonderful talent) and the guitarist arrived on stage to complete the great trio that would make the crowd vibrate!
Addressing various topics in their lyrics, they played classics such as ‘Into the Sun’, and ‘One Lone Night’.
A highlight was when they drank bottles of the traditional Argentine beer Quilmes, and the audience got excited.
Closing the night with the wonderful song “Oh Darlin, What Have I Done” The White Buffalo had an incredible debut in our country, a show that was long awaited, but that exceeded all expectations, making us travel, through its deep lyrics, along the long roads.
