Y La Bamba
February 8, 2013 2:00pm
This week's show features new music Y La Bamba's new EP "Oh February!"
Once again, I smuggle the best new Latin sounds onto the airwaves because every corporate radio station is completely sleeping on these
innovative musicians! You're already a dinosaur Latino Mix!! You've got Mana on the home page and Pitbull
carrying two songs in your top 10? What is this 2004??!!
No! It's 2013 and I've got a kick ass show for you today because I'm featuring brand new music from everybody's favorite mariachi-indie-folk band!
That's right! Portland's own, Y La Bamba, just released a brand new EP last week appropriately titled "Oh February." This follow up to their full length album "Court the Storm" (easily one of my favorite of 2012) was produced
by The Decemberists' Chris Funk and released on the label Tender Loving Empire.
They're starting 2013 off with quite a bang! They've just finished up an east coast tour with The Lumineers, and now they're offering 6 brand new songs of their signature blend of Mexicanismo andAmericana
that are sure to bring a little warmth the tail end of your winter.
