The University of Texas at Austin, 2016 SUPERVISOR: Robin Moore This study focuses on “Latin Alternative” music in the United States, specifically in New York City, from 2000-2016. An indefinable genre, Latin Alternative challenges existing parameters of Latin music and Latinidad. Reviewing demographic data, performance videos, websites, periodicals, blogs, and notes from concerts and conference events, I construct a picture of the unique qualities of this scene. The data show that musicians, audiences, and other sociomusical agents1 in the scene are invested in “mixing” sounds, as if axiomatically symbolic of their identities. The scene rests on discourses of pan- Latinidad, alternativism, solidarity with other Latinxs and the active inclusion of marginalized groups like Afro-Latinxs and LGBTQ Latinxs. In this context, “Latin music” may be punk, hip-hop, electronica, or any combination of sounds. Building on the work of scholars in ethnomusicology and Latinx studies, I consider several existing theories and their utility.

  • THE DESLONDES RETURN with ​HURRY HOME JUNE 23Rd, 2017
    THE DESLONDES RETURN WITH HURRY HOME ​ JUNE 23rd, 2017 VIA NEW WEST RECORDS AMERICAN SONGWRITER PREMIERES “HURRICANE SHAKEDOWN” VIDEO TODAY INITIAL TOUR DATES ANNOUNCED The Deslondes are set to return with their sophomore album Hurry Home on June 23rd via New ​ ​ West Records. The 13-song set continues their studied and inventive take on New Orleans country and R&B but also represents a sonic shift with a more electrified sound. Long combining elements of early Stax, Sun, and Atlantic Records with the influence of a more raw, stripped-down sound gleaned off field recordings from Alan Lomax and the Mississippi Records catalog, the band have now incorporated psychedelic flourishes that bring to mind the sonic experimentation of Joe Meek, Lee Hazlewood and The Velvet Underground. Lauded as "burgeoning stars" by The New York Times, Hurry Home is the follow-up to the band's critically ​ ​ ​ ​ acclaimed 2014 eponymous debut that NPR Music called “energized, elegant and new,” and ​ Pitchfork awarded a 7.9 rated review stating that it “introduces a band that sounds confident and fully formed." For Hurry Home, the band split up songwriting and lead vocal duties among ​ ​ its five members, Sam Doores, Riley Downing, Dan Cutler, John James Tourville, and Cameron Snyder, continuing its democratic ethos and musical versatility. American Songwriter ​ premiered the new video for the song “Hurricane Shakedown,” calling it “a nifty rockabilly number sure to get your feet moving,” today and can be seen Here.
