So, what are people saying about Café Café?
“I haven’t heard something this sexy in a night club in a really long time.” – NPR Music Alt.Latino‘s Jasmine Garsd.
“The rhythmic instrumental and vocal interplay is top-notch, as the lilting percussion and jarana, requinto, punteador, leona, marimbal, and zapateado take center-stage. The ten tracks are evocative, mesmerizing…” – Matthew Forss, Inside World Music.
“This New York based band mine flinty traditional Mexican jarocho music, then fracture it through a modern sensibility of their own.” – Jim Farber’s Top Ten in Music, Daily News.
“Radio Jarocho is leading the way in preserving and expanding son jarocho…” – Alex Brown, Splinters & Candy.
New York Music Daily blog calls Radio Jarocho a “high-energy acoustic Mexican folk-punk band.”
