We are delighted to announce we have secured the services of Theresa Faus to play on the Monday after-party. A long-time friend and source of tango history information, Theresa is the perfect fit as a DJ for Garua. We are certain the room will sparkle as she delivers with finesse from her extensive music knowledge, …
As we all know, Tango is also about chemistry, and here on the final night, we have set a task for a master chemist of Tango to add Peace & Love to the Craic and come up with a mixture that will seduce another round of endorphins and smiles from you all. So finally, we …
Tango DJ Anthony Cronin was found out a bit shy today and I (Olga) am not a great essay writer. That’s why, dear Garúans, you are safe from a long read this time. To many of you Anthony is familiar as a DJ with a profound knowledge of music and romantic touch. Most of our …
Next up from Rome, we welcome Alessandro Grillo Tango DJ and, with it, a chance to right a historical wrong. I have heard Ale many times in Marathons and Encuentro settings, and he has no trouble adapting to the audience and the flow of energy in the room. He also has an extensive collection of shellac and vinyl, …
Next up you will find yourself in the capable hands of Aurélien Niort from Nantes France. To call him a safe pair of hands does not do his DJ skills justice. He is well known across the Encuentro circuit, first as a DJ and then a dancer. In 2017 and 2019 at the very prestigious Tangueras’s Choice Awards he …
What to say about our DJ for Friday night? Nothing I can type will tell you anything new. We are truly overjoyed to have long term friend Jens-Ingo Brodesser joining us. When we talked about the perfect choice for a rocket launching Friday Night, the list was very short. With years of experience and a …
So to open Garúa 2023 (or Four Feck’s Sake, as we prefer to call it) Friday Afternoon’s DJ Set we have a man we wanted for the first edition but couldn’t get him. Thankfully he is available now. Oliver needs no introduction to anyone who has been dancing in Europe in the last few decades, …
The magic of Garua will continue into the first night under the expert guidance of Dag. I have known Dag a long time, we first crossed paths many moons ago DJing the same marathon in Vilnius, multiple times since I have heard him play. Each time dancers got an accomplished mix of energy and delightfully …
What is not to love about a fellow Troilo and Pugliese addict? For me as I once sat with her chatting while she DJ’d an after-party, we discussed Troilo and the idea of playing late Troilo, a brave move for any DJ. As I wandered away to leave her to her work the floor filled …
In the small world of tango, Ricardo is well-loved by many and rightfully so. I first shared a ticket with him in Eton many years ago and was impressed by his ability to weave the energy and tell a story. He is of course another member of the Troilo afficiando’s club (a club list I …
