There has been a recent surge of Latin American pop that draws on local and regional sound; accordions, tubas, acoustic Spanish guitars and tight harmonies. The beats, while often also regional, are largely electronic (to my ears). Nice grooves, catchy tunes. See what you think!

The band told me that their song Hard Times was inspired by Talking Heads, so I learned it and recorded my version of their great song with a horn section. This was fun! The 12" is available on Record Store Day 2024 -More info and a store near you at recordstoreday.com
