Today I was so lucky to see Federico Aubele live concert, amazing Argentinian singer, songwriter, musician. I fell in love with his music few years ago, I heard him somewhere online. I listen to him often while drawing or driving, I made Pandora radio station with his songs.
Today I sketched and listen and at the end asked him to sign my sketch, how cool is that! He liked my drawing. Wow! I am gonna do drawing in ink based on my sketches of him today. Here used Blackwing 602 (love this pencil) in Moleskine.

Thank you so much for that addition, introducing me to Frederico. Love the drawing too!

Oh, you’re sooooo lucky! I wasn’t able to go. Very cool drawing, I’m glad he signed it.

Thank you Monmoli and Eileen, it was amazing experience, listen and draw. I felt I was alone there with his music. I love combination of electronic dub, melody and voice. Before it was free glass of wine at the bar, I drew it too.
Eileen, you still have a chance to hear him, he resides in Brooklyn, Williamsburg for now and gives concerts in NY and DC, I think. Check on his Facebook or Twitter.

This Federico Aubele is interesting and reminds me of Gotan Project. BTW Nikira, do you dance tango?
Nikira 10:12 pm on November 19, 2011 | #
@Greyseal , may be because Gotan Project also use elements of tango and bossanova? I don’t dance tango because anything not involving drawing bores me to death. But I’ll draw it.
If I will be able to dance tango and draw at the same time that will do.

I have heard it said (and believe it so) that the Argentine Tango is painting with your feet. (smile)

I wish, Greyseal.
I actually use to draw on the beach with my feet, It was fun.
