Spanglish Fly at SOBs 7/16 July 16, 2010

“What Sharon Jones did for oldschool soul, what Antibalas did for Afrobeat and what Chicha Libre is doing for chicha, Spanglish Fly is doing for bugalu. . . . It’s about time somebody brought this stuff back and it’s a good thing it’s this band because they have authentic sabor” – Lucid Culture
