SAN RAMON, California — Percussionist/singer/songwriter Carlos Elizalde refuses to
let 2014 go gentle into that good night, with a string of performances in
December to close out one of his most successful years to date. As always,
Elizalde is relying on his world-class array of HARMAN’s AKG microphones for
his final performances of 2014.
Elizalde is
the leader of Rúckatan,
a San Ramon, California-based Latin, reggae
and world music band, where his vocals and stage presence deliver a message of
positivity—something everyone can use around the holidays. On Saturday, December
13 and Sunday, December 14, Rúckatan will be sharing a bill with Richard Bean &
Sapo, the Sal Rodriguez Band, Jesse Flores and more at the Alemany High School
Hall in Mission Hills, California.
In addition,
Rúckatan will
be playing a free show at the R-Place Music Club in Livermore, California, on
Saturday, December 20.
“I’m really
looking forward to closing out 2014 with a bang!” Elizalde noted. “My AKG
microphones have supported me so well throughout the year—and in many years
before. It’s a luxury to be able to perform night in and night out with the
knowledge that your microphone system will back you up 100 percent.”
Elizalde is
the proud owner and avid user of an extensive AKG system, highlighted by his
WMS4500 wireless microphone setup, which includes a D7 reference dynamic vocal
microphone. Elizalde also uses an AKG IVM4500 in-ear monitor set and a D7
microphone for percussion.
Elizalde
also recently added an AKG C214 large-diaphragm condenser microphone to his
inventory. “I am using the C214 for an overhead to mic all of my LP hand
percussions,” Elizalde added. “It’s really an incredible microphone!”
