Description

For more than three decades, the Mexican band Café Tacvba has redefined Latin rock with humor and experimentation. Now, founding member Emmanuel “Meme” del Real steps into the spotlight with "La Montaña Encendida" ("The Burning Mountain") — his first solo album. From the forests of central Mexico, Meme reflects on solitude, creativity, and community, as well as what touring the US for thirty years has taught him about belonging in a time of rising divisions. The World's Tibisay Zea reports from Mexico City.
