Anthony to Perform at White House Latin Music Event

Marc Anthony will join a cadre of fellow Latin artists for an upcoming White House event paying tribute to Hispanic music heritage.

President Obama will host the evening of music, with additional performances from Aventura, Pete Escovedo, Gloria Estefan, Jose Feliciano, Los Lobos, Thalia, and Tito “El Bambino.”  Actor Jimmy Smits is reportedly among the lucky invited guests, as well as famed singer/percussionist Sheila E. who will lead the house band!

Unless you hold a golden ticket, fans of Latin music, and President Obama, can check out the event after the fact. The concert will be taped for PBS and air on October 15th, as well as on Telemundo October 18th.
