With the Latin Alternative Music Conference in town, Soundcheck‘s John Schaefer and Latino USA‘s Maria Hinojosa teamed up in The Greene Space on July 11, 2014 to present a night of live music and conversation about music, the art of performance and the state of creativity in Latin America today.
The night featured performances by singer-songwriter Juana Molina and psychedelic salsa band La Mecánica Popular – two musical acts who re-imagine Latin roots sounds in extraordinary ways – and members of Labyrinth Theater Company, who gave us a behind-the-scenes look at their theater troupe, one of the most diverse and exciting in New York City.
