Damien Escobar Live in Concert
Born in the Jamaica, Queens, neighborhood in New York City in 1986, Damien Escobar was destined for a life in music from a tender age. He began playing violin at the age of 8 and showed unparalleled talent as a young musician. By age 10, he began taking weekend classes at The Julliard School as the youngest student ever to be accepted. His brother, Tourie Escobar, was similarly gifted, and the two later studied together at the Bloomingdale School of Music in Manhattan. Around 2003, the two brothers started Nuttin' But Strings and excited audiences by blending classical violin with jazz, R&B and hip-hop. Damien and Tourie gained fame playing in New York hotspots like Grand Central Station and later won a talent night at the Apollo Theater in 2005. The brothers gained momentum as they landed a White House performance for George W. Bush, made it to No. 3 on America's Got Talent in 2008 and later performed at the inauguration of former President Barack Obama in 2009. By 2012, Damien had stopped performing with his brother and earned his real estate license. However, it wasn't long before music called to him again, and Damien finally made his solo debut in 2012. According to Damien, "It all needed to fall apart so I could be forced to grow while putting it back together the right way." And he did put it together the right way because Damien went on to release his first solo album, Sensual Melodies, in 2014, followed by Awaken in 2015, Boundless in 2017, and Songs from a Breakthrough in 2020.
First time at 20 Monroe Live. I couldn't make the December 10 concert at Royal Oak Music Theatre so I drove to Grand Rapids. Excellent acoustics and seating in the venue. Small intimate setting and not a bad seat in the place. Damien Escobar is an extremely talented violinist and it shows from the performance that night. His interaction with the audience made us feel like part of the experience.
A friend recommended I go to Damien's show and I can't thank him enough for the recommendation. I owe him a debt of gratitude. I'm a new forever fan! God has truly blessed this man with such talent and we are so fortunate he has chosen to share his craft with us. All that hard work paid off! Thank you for all you do.
.Lyndsey Smith was Damien Escobar's opening act, and she engaged the audience and got us pumped for Damien! Damien was amazing and interacted with his fans like family! Such an soulful experience, I would attend again and again!
Always a great show. Excellent performer. Worth the money spent
One of the best concerts I seen all year! Relates very well with his audience.
The concert was awesome. Damien escobar put on an amazing show.
This was my second time seeing him and he is absolutely amazing so much talent he is an excellent performer and gives a great show I love when he walks out into the audience while playing the violin his music takes you away
I went to here Escobar play his violin. I didn't know the have of it. This young man lifted my spirits. I recommend this performance to everyone.
Came from Buffalo, NY to hear him. For vertically challenged people, I.e. 5’1” or shorter, would highly recommend getting front row seats, or balcony, depending on the venue. Once folks stood up there was no sittting down. Even standing was difficult to see if there was a taller person in front of you. Expect to do a lot of neck craning. Sound was great, just would have enjoyed actually seeing more of him. He was very personable even coming down the aisle playing. Performed for almost 2 hours. Love Damien Escobar.
Worth the drive from Buffalo to Toronto. Damien Escobar is ABSOLUTELY talented! Great performer, entertainer and genuine musical genius. I am a fan for life. Already looking at following him at other venues. Loved every single note!
Damien did not disappoint. He gave an amazing performance! He is a very talented musician with the ability to connect with the audience.
Nothing but positive things to say about Damien Escobar. Besides undeniable talent, he is a great entertainer. He connects with the audience, weaves personal stories and humor into his performance. I was smiling through the whole show and emotionally moved by much of it.
I loved every minute of the concert. The seats were easy to find and the waiters were very friendly!
This was a GREAT show!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I will see him everytime he comes to Detroit!!!!!
This concert was soul-reviving! He delivered in Detroit and a good time was had by all. Can't wait to see him again,
Damien gave us a wonderful evening! Please go see him if you can!
We had a great time. It was my first time seeing Damien live and would love to do it again. He put on an excellence show! Marcus Anderson put on a great show as well.
Damien continues to come into his own as a performer. His music is by far a force to be reckoned with and I can't wait to see how it evolves. His mastery of the violin, ability to improvise and technical prowese rivals few. He pours his soul into every note and takes us on a journey that leaves us wishing for more. Go see him. You won't regret it.
It was an awesome experience. I am definitely going again when he comes back to Detroit.
Damien Escobar has an AMAZING talent and we are truly blessed that he shares his gift with the world.
