About this Event
Agarita, joined by vocalist Azul Barrientos, invites you on a musical journey celebrating the vibrant traditions of Folklórico music from across Mexico. Born in Mexico City and now based in San Antonio, Azul blends Mexicana and Chicana cultures, reviving rhythms, stories, and dances that connect Latin America, Africa, Europe, and Mexico. Through her heartfelt interpretations, you’ll hear the history, culture, and regional styles of Mexico come alive — and even have a chance to join in. Recommended for all ages
