The musical group La Santa Cecilia, with Mexican roots but originally from the U.S. city of Los Angeles (California), vindicated on Monday the ties between the U.S. and Mexico by stressing that they are like a “family” that tries to “unite” these bilateral ties through music or poetry. <\/p>\n

“(We have to) understand our experience as Mexicans living in the United States. We want to unite the ties between the two countries. And also to discover who we are, what we want to do in music, with love, with the energy we share with the people,” said the members of the group at a press conference in Mexico City.<\/p>\n

Formed by Marisol Hern\u00e1ndez (vocalist<\/a>), Jos\u00e9 ‘Pepe’ Carlos (musician), Alex Benda\u00f1a (bassist) and Miguel ‘Oso’ Ram\u00edrez (percussionist), they will perform on September 12 at the Teatro Metrop\u00f3litan in Mexico City.<\/p>\n

This group founded in 2007 combines Latin American styles such as cumbia, bolero or rumba, as well as popular expressions of American culture.<\/p>\n

Regarding their identity as a band, Hern\u00e1ndez said that they do not feel “pressure” when people point to them as the “voice of the migrants”, since for them that appellation is an “honor” and a “privilege” to be able to take their music to “different places”.<\/p>\n

“If people say that we are the voice of migrants, we accept it with much honor, with much affection (…) Because there are many people who can’t do it, who can’t travel, who are stuck in a migration system, who are detained. So for us it is like a duty,” said the singer, of Mexican roots.<\/p>\n

About the upcoming concert in Mexico, the members of La Santa Cecilia assured that it is a “dream” for them and there will be “a lot of new music” to “share energy” with their audience, especially with songs from their latest album: Los A\u00f1os.<\/p>\n

“We are very fortunate to be able to travel, meet and share with many people an energy that goes beyond the alliance and the wave, which helps you to describe things in life that sometimes you do not have words to do it through music and the feeling of creating things,” they said.<\/p>\n

The members of La Santa Cecilia recalled the reception of the Mexican public in other concerts, and expressed their desire to share “a very special night” in their next show.<\/p>\n

“Doors and hearts have opened for us in a way we didn’t expect. (Mexicans) have given us a new life. It’s like having a baby come into your life, into your life, into your family. That’s how we feel together in the Santa Cecilia family with the entire Mexican public,” reported Agencia EFE.<\/p>\n
