Perla Batalla February 12, 2010

Promising a “Festival de Amor,” Los Angeles native Perla Batalla transforms her stunning voice and expansive musical vision into a true Valentine’s Day treat. This vibrant evening features material from throughout her acclaimed career, including her new love-themed album, and appearances by special guests. From her L.A. childhood in her father’s Spanish-language record shop (honored on her album “Disco Teca”) through her years singing in Leonard Cohen’s band (subject of the tribute collection “Bird on the Wire”), Batalla has rich, multicultural musical life to draw upon.
