Kiltro
To declare one thematic narrative from Lucha, Y La Bambas seventh album, would be to chisel away a story within a story within a story into the illusion of something singular. "Lucha is a symbol of how hard it is for me to tackle healing, live life, and be present," Luz Elena Mendoza Ramos, lead vocalist and producer of Y La Bamba, says of the title behind the album which translates from Spanish to English as fight and is also a nickname for Luz, which means light. The album explores love, queerness, Mexican American and Chicanx identity, family, intimacy, yearning, loneliness and chronicles a period of struggle and growth for Mendoza Ramos as a person and artist.
Kiltro is the brainchild of Chilean-American singer songwriter Chris Bowers Castillo. Conceived in the lively, bohemian port city of Valparaiso, Chile. Kiltro draws much of its thematic energy from Latin-American folk artists, making for an emotive and stylistically unique merging of older genres with contemporary ones.
