Also part of the evening Mamacoatl, and Los Nadies.

Better known as The BorderCrossing Diosa, MamacoAtl is the descendant of Yaqui Warriors who never gave up their right to ancestral land. Today She speaks of migration from this perspective, crossing cultural and disciplinary borders to create a new premise for who We are.

Los Nadies bring a keen mix of politics, poetry, street party and musicianship. Their unique blend of rock, nueva trova, South American folklore and Afro-Latin rhythms truly embodies the Latin rock fusion genre.
