Once Minutos 

Once Minutos (OM) had its start in Seattle, Washington in 2005 and is made up of Rebecca Garcia and Sandra Aguilar. Their music is an acoustic blend of eclectic Latin and folk rhythms among others. You can expect to be wooed by the richness and depth of the vocals of this dynamic duo at any performance. OM is passionate about the music that they do and are committed to sowing the seeds of love and compassion through music which they believe is intrinsic in connecting the heart strings of humanity.

OM has played in venues as intimate as family gatherings as well as local festivals, coffee houses, restaurants, fundraisers and wineries, etc in Washington State.
