Las Cafeteras fuses the unique sound of East LA with Afro-Mexican rhythms, zapateado, and powerful lyrics. Born in the streets of Los Angeles, the group merges roots music and modern day stories with what LA Times has called a “uniquely Angeleno mishmash of punk, hip-hop, beat music, cumbia, and rock … Live, they’re magnetic.” Their songs tell stories of a community seeking love and fighting for justice in the concrete jungle of LA. The band blends poetry with the regional folk music style of traditional Son Jarocho for a vibrant remix.
