This is a Groupmuse Night Out

Explore the wider world of music outside Groupmuse with exclusive discounts to local concerts.

Groupmuse and Omni Foundation for the Performing Arts have partnered up for a NIGHT OUT with Grammy-winning guitarist David Russell at the Herbst Theatre on April 2nd!

Classical guitarist David Russell is world renowned for his superb musicianship and inspired artistry, having earned the highest praise from audiences and critics alike. In recognition of his great talent and his international career, he was named a Fellow of The Royal Academy of Music in London in 1997. In May 2003 he was bestowed the great honor of being made “adopted son” of Es Migjorn, the town in Minorca where he grew up. Later the town named a street after him, “Avinguda David Russell”. In November 2003 he was given the Medal of Honor of the Conservatory of the Balearics.
After winning the Grammy award, the town of Nigrán in Spain where he resides, gave him the silver medal of the town in an emotional ceremony.

Our friends at Omni have provided a stack of 55%+ discounted tickets for our Groupmuse community members--a steal at $20 (and $15 for Supermusers)--but supplies are limited so get yours while you still can!
