Good morning, this is your Santa Fe Local Frequency for Thursday, February 27, 2025. We're starting with some sad news today. Oscar-winning actor Gene Hackman and his wife, Betsy Arakawa, were found dead in their New Mexico home on Wednesday afternoon. Authorities have confirmed that foul play is not suspected, but an investigation is ongoing to determine the circumstances of their deaths[1][3].
Moving on to more uplifting news, Santa Fe is buzzing with exciting events this month. If you're looking for something to do tonight, the February Chef's Supper Club is happening at 6:30 PM, offering a culinary experience you won't want to miss[4].
For those who love music, there's been a plethora of performances throughout February. Last week, Sol y Soul performed live at La Fiesta Lounge at La Fonda on the Plaza, bringing Cuban rhythms to the heart of Santa Fe. And if you're in the mood for something different, Felix y Los Gatos, known for their "Green Chile Gumbo" Blues, have been touring and performing their unique blend of Latin, Blues, and New Mexico Ranchera music.
