Hector Anchondo - Colorado
Jam
Air Date: 10/02/2020
In this performance, Hector Anchondo performs his own blues original, "Colorado." Hector Anchondo picked up a guitar at the age of 16 and has never looked back, finding success on the music scene with his own rock band, Anchondo. While his fans wanted more of his signature Latin-infused rock, Hector felt a calling to play the blues. He packed up and moved to Chicago for a year, listening to nothing but the blues, and it changed his life. Starting over in a new genre, Hector has separated himself as a talented guitarist and someone destined to heat up the blues charts. The Omaha musician took home the top prize in the solo/duo category at the 2020 International blues challenge. He also snagged a prestigious Memphis Cigar Box Guitar Award for best guitarist in the same category.
