A Banjo, Bomba, Bardo y Más
The operative word this week seems to be "intense passion."
OK, that's two words, but that is what ties together a seemingly disparate collections of songs ranging from the techno-infused new single from Mexico's Vanessa Zamora to the laidback rebirth known as Bardo (of Chicano Batman) ... even to the three musicians in the multicultural jazz-folk group BEATrio.
Featured artists and songs:
- Queralt Lahoz, "LA FE"
- Bardo, "Renacer" (feat. Combo Chimbita)
- Vanessa Zamora, "GRAVEDAD" (feat. Çantamarta)
- BEATrio, "Archipelago"
- Mon Laferte, "Otra Noche de Llorar"
- El Laberinto del Coco, "Todo Se Nubla"
