RANA SANTACRUZ

Part of the Frida Kahlo: Her Photos Celebration


SAT FEB 25 / 8 PM



Dome Theatre

A Mexican native living in Brooklyn, NY, Rana
Santacruz is considered one of the artists currently redefining the
sound of Mexican American music. His music, often called "Mexican
Bluegrass" or "Irish Mariachi" starts in Ireland, runs through
Appalachia, swings through New Orleans, and careens across most of
Mexico. Santacruz’s songs seem to belong on a magical-realistic novel by
Gabriel Garcia Marquez or Mexican author Juan Rulfo and tell tales of
funerals, loyal dogs and towns flooded with tears.

This is one of a number of complementary programs celebrating the Frida Kahlo: Her Photos exhibit at Artisphere.
