ENCORE: La Frontera

Selena deep cuts. Quinceañera classics. Borracho jams. We're continuing our streak of talking about music from la frontera this week by bringing back an episode with writer Yvonne Marquez. A native of Mission, Texas, Yvonne joins us to focus on the music of la frontera Tejana and to chat about our shared love of the Rio Grande Valley. Listen in for stories about kitchen dance parties, high school mariachi bands, and the best tamales spot in South Texas. Featuring music by Grupo Control, Jesika, La Mafia, Selena, Sofia Reyes and Ramón Ayala. Check out Yvonne's newest writing project Queer Futures: Show notes: bit.ly/3TuVYRL
