What Does A Liver Feel Like

Lila Downs, Shake Away

Lila Downs has put the rest in his eighth work in recent months has just launched and it does really show who he is. An exercise in sincerity like a pendulum marking the poles of mixed nature.

To begin the two tracks on the CD clearly shows their origin from mother india, "Ojo de Culebra" influence of the medicine women of Oaxaca and culebreros of Veracruz while "Shake Away" marks the parent-child traits of North American origin.

Of the 16 songs that takes, extras included, you could write a treatise on the fusion of styles. Cumbias, folk songs, rancheras, blues, classic rock or displayed in perfect disorder. English and Castilian alternate course. Thirteen of the cuts to his name with his regular partner and an excellent saxophonist Paul Cohen. The co-production is also signed by Brian Lynch and Aneiro Tano. All seasoned with traditional mariachis, a Balkan band, to give an example, and great musicians like Ken Basman, Juancho Herrera, Celso Duarte, Rob Curto's accordion, guitars, Humberto Herrera, Booker King on bass and percussion of the Chilean and Colombian Yayo Samuel Torres. Singers from around the world collaborate to Oaxaca, Mercedes Sosa, singer Ruben Albarran from Café Tacuba, Gilberto Guiterrez of Mono Blanco, Raul Midon, Enrique Bunbury, etc.
