Tom and Kalissa Landa will perform live at the Mae Wilson Theatre on Tuesday, Oct. 29 starting at 7:30 p.m.
The duo will perform an array of Celtic, folk, singer-songwriter, Latin, Mexican, and roots musical genres with lyrics sung in both English and Spanish in celebration of their respective Mexican and Chilean heritages.
