What is INDIE en ESPAÑOL? Bands like Maneja Beto, apparently! I went to a media event where they played a short set yesterday. Before they started, I asked someone what kind of music they played and they answered, “I don’t like that question.” After hearing them and doing my research, that reaction is understandable–they draw on traditional Mexican cumbia, son, and tejano styles as well as indie rock/Brit pop sounds. They’ve been on NPR’s Alt.Latino blog, their music has been featured as a KCRW Top Tune, and they’ve played South by Southwest. Tonight they’ll be at La Cita downtown, so drive over and check out this up and coming indie en español band!
