World Music Festival - La Chica + Beats y Bateria

FREE! 21+

9pm doors, 10pm show

Part of the 2022 World Music Festival Chicago — Featuring 10 consecutive days of FREE live, global music, with 34 bands (including three DJs) representing 22 countries and spotlighting 10 local music groups. September 30th - October 9th throughout the city. Visit www.worldmusicfestivalchicago.org for full schedule and info.

One side of the ocean is Latin America, intense and mystical land. On the other side, there is Paris, Belleville, multicultural, urban and modern land. Through her music, La Chica reunites those two worlds by proposing a collage of sound textures, borrowed from her cultural heritage and various modern influences, by breaking the established codes. It’s around the piano and keyboards that her universe got built, skillfully mixing her classical inspirations (such as her love for Debussy) with the depth of aerial layers of analog synth.

Beats y Batería explores traditional Afro-Latino, Romanian and neo-electronic sounds, along with jazz, house, some disco and bossa nova. The trio is formed by producer Harold 'AfroQbano' Gonzalez on synths and percussion, with Daniel Crane on drums, and singer-songwriter Ana Everling's enchanting dance floor poetry echoing in multiple languages. www.beatsybateria.com
