Savannah Fuentes presents her latest show, “Northern Lights,” in Sequim on Oct. 1.

Show time is 7:30-9 p.m. at the Gathering Hall at Olympic Theater Arts, 414 N. Sequim Ave.

“Northern Lights” is a presentation of Flamenco as interpreted by three very different artists; Puerto Rican/Irish dancer Savannah Fuentes, guitarist Bobby de Sofia, and direct from Spain, singer Juañarito.

Tickets are: general seating, $23, VIP seats, $35; student/low-income, $15; youths, $8.

Seattle-native Fuentes has developed her craft in America (as opposed to Spain) and intentionally strives to distinguish her style as uniquely American. De Sofia hails from Bulgaria and incorporates his cultural identity as well a relaxed style into his playing technique.

Juañarito is a young talent from a long line of Spanish Roma Flamenco singers from the Andalusian province of Jerez de La Frontera (known as the cradle of Flamenco). The son of famed singer Juañares and the nephew of Flamenco legend José Merce, Juañarito gained national acclaim in Spain as a result of his incredible performances on “The Voice” (“La Voz España”) this year. He will be making his American debut in “Northern Lights.”

The performance is the first date on a 35-stop North American tour, Fuente’s most extensive tour to date. See www.savannahflamenko.com.
