Comprised of the talented singer-songwriter Hobo Cane and the skilled guitarist Miguel Cancino, this duo brings a unique and captivating sound to the stage.
Inspired by legendary artists such as James Brown, Led Zeppelin, Prince, BB King and Lenny Kravitz, Cane & Cancino infuse their music with elements of soul, blues, and funk. Their songs are a mesmerizing blend of rootsy rhythms, soulful melodies, and bluesy guitar riffs, creating a sonic experience that is both nostalgic and contemporary.

This fusion adds a unique flavor to their music, making it both accessible and exotic to listeners.
