A duo loaded with star power, a layered performance crossing through countless genres, and an
electrified crowd that loved every second of it.
Argentine duo Ca7riel & Paco Amoroso concluded their U.S. leg of their "Free Spirits World Tour" last night at Arizona Financial Theatre. From the first note of "No Me Sirve Más," it was apparent that everybody in the building was in for a fun and memorable night.
Really remarkable was the duo's care and emphasis on the experiential aspect of the show; it carried a narrative structure with monologues between songs, live band members on either edge of the stage, and wacky and whimsical skits scattered throughout the night (including a fake baby being birthed and a set of the battle ropes exercise mid-song).
Though it's not just the grand concepts that were impressive; it's the details too! Cariel holding a pose while handing off his guitar to a stagehand; Paco's comedic rants and ad-libs; and the undeniable chemistry that glues your eyes to them no matter what they're doing at that particular moment.
It's not a surprise that the crowd was going nuts all night and wearing album-inspired outfits; it's
easy to buy into this duo and immerse yourself in the experience. From my view, I could see
every section of the crowd moving and dancing to the Latin, pop sound, headbanging for songs
that lean more rock and partying hard with "Beto's Horns."
Cariel & Paco put on a show to remember and sent the fans home happy.
