Those early days of living in different migrant camps and following the harvest from region to region exposed Cris to a wide range of musical experiences. While Cris and Ann have made their home in Wisconsin\, the couple’s per formance borrows much from Cris’s heritage and musical diversity. He des cribes his style as Mexican roots music\, borrowing from norteno\, conjunt o and ranchera music. Cris’s life and musical partner Ann Plata is the b ass player and backing vocalist for the duo. She received her rhythm educa tion on the stage\, in \"real time\" while playing with the great drummer Clyde Stubblefield.\n \n\n \n With all of these influences\, how do we de scribe Cris Plata's music in a nutshell? Perhaps we will have to borrow th e term Tex-Mex and redefine it. \"Tex\" would now stand for Texas singer-s ongwriters and \"Mex\" would stand for Mexican roots music. However\, do n ot let this definition alone form your impression of his music. Come to th e concert and the best definition will be your own. \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \ n  \n \n\n \n  \n \n\n \n HOSTED BY:\n \n\n \n Farley Center\n\n \n  \n \n www.farleycenter.org\n \n\n \n Southwest Wisconsin Area Prog ressives (SWWAP) https://www.facebook.com/MtHorebProgressives\n \n\n \n Natural Path Sanctuary\n\n www.naturalpathsanctuary\,org \n\n \n See less\n \n \n\n\n\n  \n\n DTSTART:20220806T220000Z END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Common Chord Concert July 16 DTSTAMP:20220527T000512Z SEQUENCE:0 UID:9-1-76bed7883f68227843330e9cb581f9ed@swwap.org ORGANIZER;CN="SWWAP":swwaplist@gmail.com DESCRIPTION:\n Common Chord Hosted by the Farley Center and the Southwes t Wisconsin Area Progressives\n\n\n\n Cost: $15 PAY AT THE DOOR\n\n SUPPOR T YOUR LOCAL MUSICIANS!\n\n All proceeds will go to the musicians\n\n\n\n Come join us for an in person concert with \"Common Chord\" at the Farley Center under the Bur Oak Welcoming Area (BOWA ). \n\n\n\n \n  \n \n\n \ n Come join us for an in person concert with \"Common Chord\" at the Farl ey Center under the Bur Oak Welcoming Area (BOWA ). \n \n\n \n Common Ch ord was formed originally as a duo in 2015 by singer/songwriters and multi -instrumentalists Michael Bryant and Tracy Jane Comer\, who were members o f the former Madison-area trio Sticky Fingers (early to mid-2000s).
