Nashville’s growing and diverse Latin music scene

It’s no secret Music City is growing, both in population and in diversity. The city’s Latin music scene is no exception. And every corner of Latin America has a different style of music represented here. What once was a small community of musicians has exploded in recent years. Now, any night of the week you can see live music en español at a local restaurant or club. Today we talk to local Latino musicians about this growing and diverse scene.

But first, we address listener feedback in our @us segment.

Today’s episode was produced by Magnolia McKay.

Guests:

• Rachel Rodriguez, singer, host of bilingual story time
• Perla Mendoza, singer, founder of Oye Media Nashville
• Gabriel Navor, singer, bassist for Proyecto G
• Catalina, pop and indie singer
• Raul Oyarce, frontman for rock band Aprendiz, founder of Íntimo performance series
