Ojos de Brujos, Alex Lora, Si*Se July 25, 2004

Ojos de Brujo brings a Flamenco attitude to a lively and free mix of musical styles including hip-hop, folk, latin, funk and rock. Success has caught them by surprise, but not off guard. Nominated as best newcomer and best European artist by the BBC, and with a gold record in their native Spain, Ojos de Brujo leaves its mark wherever it goes. Recognized as ?a true hero of the Mexican national rock scene,? Alex Lora began his career in the late ?60s. Although he originally sang in English, his career exploded when he switched to Spanish, his native language. Si*Se is New York?s own and has been described by the Los Angeles Times as, ?(a) fusion of chilly electronic beats with a warm, pan-Latino sensibility.
