Ensemble Ibérica presents Sin Fronteras: A concert about borders, made by musicians without borders, Saturday, December 28th, 7:30- 9:30pm at MTH Theater. Tickets: https://ensembleiberica.org/sinfronterasconcert/
The U.S. border with Mexico is a fault line where cultural and political forces clash and meld in a centuries-old embrace. Sin Fronteras is a monumental musical project exploring music from both sides of the 5,525-mile-long border. The project features Latin Grammy winners Mireya Ramos and Los Texmaniacs, alongside the country and western band Slim Hanson and the Poor Choices. Ramos’ riveting vocals, paired with the accordion-driven pulse of the Texamanics, then add the classic country sound of The Poor Choices, and you’ve found the soundtrack of those with one foot on either side of the border.
