Title:
BORDER (LA LINEA)
By:
DOWNS, LILA
Description:
Billboard calls her "one of the most spellbinding voices to grace the world music scene" and the LA Times extols her "exotic beauty and starling voice," seeing her as a "reflection of a 21st century world culture where ethnicity and national boundaries blur." This album definitely forges a bridge between cultures and time. It's a collection of stirring songs inspired by life at the border, the plight of the migrant workers and the hardships endured by indigenous peoples. She infuses jazz, gospel and hip-hop styles with traditional cumbias, creating powerful music in any language.
