Who doesn’t like cumbia?! Maybe it came from Colombia, but now it’s everywhere. Ubiquitous throughout Mexico, in Texas (Selena!) and in LA. It can be tacky (Mi Cucu!), or joyous and heartfelt (Natalia Lafourcade with Los Angeles Azules), or both at the same time...and it is always irresistible! It can be folkloric or electronic, dark or light, silly or serious. Maybe this is what we need for the holidays?
PS: In Barranquilla, a city on the Colombian coast, there is even a monument to cumbia!
