Watch the Calabash Video Channel
This week the Calabash Crew is in Texas -- attending the South By Southwest Music Conference. SXSW showcases hundreds of musical acts from around the globe on over fifty stages in downtown Austin.
In case you can't make the on-stage performances in Austin tonight we present this video of one of the artists who embodies the SXSW spirit to the core: Pistolera - an authentic Latin rock/folklorico band, based in NYC that blends indie-pop with old school Mexican rancheros. Drawing from traditional styles of Mexican music and fusing it with a pop-rock sensibility, the electrifying quartet features the Spanish lyric songs of vocalist and guitarist Sandra Lilia Velásquez, the driving accordion melodies of Maria Elena, and the unbeatable rhythm section of bassist Inca B. Satz and drummer Ani Cordero. 'Cazador' is a timely song addressing immigration rights.
