专辑简介

Mala Maña, New Mexico's own Women's Voice and Drum Ensemble, draws its inspiration from the rhythms of Afro-Colombia’s Atlantic and Pacific coasts, but does not stop there: woven into the mix are Caribbean reggaton, African-American traditional, Mexican cumbia, and their own cumbia-inspired original compositions. Like a collective, Mala Maña consists of 8 women who share diverse backgrounds in African and Latin pop, flamenco dance, and Mexican norteño music. Their love for the rhythm-inspired music of Colombia’s coastal people brought this vision of diversely-talented women together to offer a unique and exciting tapestry of many voices and many drums. Mala Maña's members are: Chava (Chava and Paid My Dues Blues Band, Chava and SoMA, Guajira), Alyson Steinman (Wagogo, Chava and Paid My Dues Blues Band), Lydia Garcia (Concepto Tambor, Joseph General), Maria Teresa Guevara (L@s Otr@s) Carolina Acuña (Omeyocan, National Institute of Flamenco), Lupe Mendoza, Cristina Rodriguez, and Tatiana Schotte.
