Host Evie Stokes sits down with KEXP DJ and host of the El Sonido: Cancioneros podcast, Albina Cabrera, to talk about the music that’s moving her. Albina also shares more about KEXP’s upcoming Aqui y Ahora programming, a month dedicated to amplifying the contributions, resilience, and music of Latinx, Hispanic, and Latino-identified communities worldwide.

Albina’s first selection this week comes from the New York- and Berlin-based Guatemalan artist aLex vs aLex. Evie and Albina gush over the project’s lush sound and aLex vs aLex’s role in the current R&B revival.

KEXP celebrates Aqui y Ahora from Sept. 15–Oct. 15. Find out more information at kexp.org/aquiyahora. You can also subscribe to El Sonido: Cancioneros wherever you podcast, or watch the videos with English subtitles on our KEXP Podcasts YouTube channel.
