iLe at Ruidosa Fest
August 10. FREE
4:30 - 11:30 PM.

The Puerto Rican singer Ileana Cabra records under the name iLe, and after getting her start as the singer in the hugely popular rap duo Calle 13, she has branched out into classic, mid-20th-century-style Latin boleros, as well as more contemporary electronic pop, with occasional hints of experimental music. She’s part of the Ruidosa Fest, the first female-led music festival of Latin music, which also features the duo Buscabulla, the Brazilian singer Bebel Gilberto, and many others. It’s free and it takes up the whole Lincoln Center campus tomorrow from 4:30 on.
