BACKGROUND
Francisco Herrera, es canta autor desde hace 35 años, componiendo e interpretando canciones que
lleguen al alma y nos muevan a creer en un mundo donde hay comida, educación y tierra para tod@s, relaciones justas
y la paz que es el resultado de ello. Hay un sueño americano que es mas bien un sueño humano que tuvo Simon
Bolivar, para todo este continente americano. A ese sueño le canta Francisco. Escucha los cantos y realiza ese sueño
en tu comunidad, iglesia, sindicato, familia.
Francisco dirije el proyecto: Trabajo Cultural CAMINANTE,
dedicado a trabajar con organizaciones comunitarias nacionales e internacionales, ayudando a afinar y desarrollar el liderazgo.
Cuando el publico despierta y actua, los líderes tiemblan y se comportan, como se dice en el sentido común.
La música es nuestra herramienta y vitamina para recordar, animar y guiar el trabajo, alimentando la esperanza y el
bien común. A traves de retiros, talleres, conciertos y conferencias El CAMINANTE nos ayuda a creer en nosotros

Francisco
Herrera directs CAMINANTE Cultural Work, dedicated to strengthening working people through retreats, workshops, conferences
and concerts. Music provides the venue by which folks can bring their communities together to have a good time, listen
to very soulful music and look at their community, deciding what it is we need to change. When people get organized leaders
tremble and behave. Francisco's interpretation of original and traditional songs helps us believe in each other.
Francisco has been writing and performing for over 35 years, always at the local community level.
A true weaver of conscience and story, moving audiences, large and small to work toward a society where there is food, education
and land for all, relations based on equality and the peace which results from these. There is a human dream for which
we all strive. Francisco's music and performances helps us see it a little more clearly. for more info: www.myspace.com/franciscoherrera
