Summary
I had the absolute thrill of seeing violinist Damian Escobar live in concert for the very first time, and to top it all off, I had the incredible opportunity to meet him in person!
Though our meet-and-greet was brief, Damian was warm, personable, and genuinely kind. He took the time to speak with everyone, flash that signature smile, and snap photos before the show. When I told him it was my first time seeing him live, he lit up and said, “Wow, I hope you enjoy yourself!” — a small moment that meant a lot coming from such a passionate performer.
And if the photo op wasn’t enough, the VIP experience took things to the next level. Before the main show even began, we lucky VIP’ers were treated to an intimate, personal pre-show performance. Just Damian, his violin, and a small group of us soaking it all in. It was soulful, raw, and utterly unforgettable — like a private concert from a friend who just happens to be a world-class artist.
Damian’s music speaks volumes, but seeing him live and witnessing his humility and connection to his fans added a whole new layer to the experience. This won’t be my last Damien Escobar concert — but I’ll always remember this first one.
