Hola Meltingpot Readers,
Yesterday I gave my lecture at Rowan University on the Black experience in Spain. Afterwards there was a reception and book signing and everyone started reminiscing about their travels to the Iberian peninsula. I got so "Spain sick." So, to soothe my Spanish soul I'm listening to Concha Buika. Why don't you join me?
Peace!

Music Monday: Concha Buika and The New Afro-Spanish Collective
Hi Meltingpot Readers,
Remember when I wrote about discovering the Afro-Spanish singer, Concha Buika? Well, I have been following her career ever since and was delighted to find out that she's moving to the United States, Miami specifically. The Root.com recently ran an interview with her about her music and her reasons for abandoning Spain for Miami. It's a good read. But even better, Buika is now on a US tour. She'll be in Philly tomorrow! To see if she's coming to your town while on her US and Canada tour, you can check her website.
And in the meantime, enjoy the music. The song is called the New Afro Spanish Generation. Watch and you'll see/hear why I love it. Kinky Gazpacho all the way!
Peace!
