LA MARISOUL
UN HOMENAJE TO MEXICAN-AMERICAN MUSIC FROM LALO GUERRERO TO TODAY
The Soraya
Sat., March 28 at 8PM
Los Angeles’ own powerhouse vocalist Marisol Hernandez (aka La Marisoul) steps out on her own with a band of All-Stars to breathe new life into the most influential Mexican-American music of the past three generations. She promises tunes from Lalo Guerrero to Los Lobos, and she will bring special guest musicians. The singer’s captivating voice has been heralded for her searing takes on love, loss, and heartbreak.
La Marisoul grew up on both sides of the Mexican-American border and counts her youth spent on Olvera Street in downtown Los Angeles among her greatest influences. She is best known for fronting the band La Santa Cecilia and playing a blend of cumbia, bossa nova, boleros, and tango music.
