Ottmar Liebert and Luna Negra
The Railhead

Grammy-nominated guitarist Ottmar Liebert brings his distinctive nuevo flamenco sound to The Railhead's intimate stage with his longtime ensemble Luna Negra. The German-born musician has spent decades crafting a unique musical voice that blends Spanish guitar traditions with Mexican, world, and even reggae influences—all shaped by his adopted home of Santa Fe, New Mexico. His melodic compositions carry a contemplative quality, mixing moments of melancholy with rhythmic vitality that keeps audiences engaged throughout his performances.

The Railhead provides an ideal setting for Liebert's acoustic artistry. This throwback venue at Boulder Station offers the kind of close-quarters atmosphere where you can actually see the guitarist's fingers work across the fretboard and feel the interplay between the musicians. With over 2,000 concerts under his belt and a catalog of 33 albums spanning everything from live recordings to orchestral arrangements, Liebert has proven himself one of the most enduring instrumental artists of recent decades. His shows typically showcase the technical precision and warm tonality that have made him a favorite among fans of contemporary instrumental and world music.
