Why, I kept asking myself, Manu Chao's Clandestino never appeared on this blog? Now I can say: "I was waiting for Lila Downs's fabulous cover version!" More properly called Clandestina (listen for its customised lyrics) appears on Lila's brand new album Al Chile.
...is Museo del fado composed by the Portuguese musician Júlio Pereira and perfomed by the timple player from Fuerteventura, Althay Páez. This song appears on Althay's first album, Sostiene Pereira.
...is Lloraría un poco más by Lau Noah. I learned about this amazing singer-songwriter from Catalonia thanks to her appearance at Tiny Desk Concert earlier this year.
...is No Hay Futuro by Caracoles, from their new album Flores. The 11-piece band from Tenerife were playing last month in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria as a part of the 2019 Musicando season.
Looks like in 14 years of this blog I never posted a song composed or performed by a Swiss musician. Correcting this oversight: beautiful Lunita by Danit, from her 2017 album Aliento.

...is La maza, the classic by Silvio Rodríguez, performed by Vivi Pozzebón. I was lucky to see her playing last month in Parque Doramas as part of the 2019 Musicando season.
...is Sietemilmillones by Ida Susal, from the 2017 album ...de Mayor Quiero Ser..., spectacularly interpreted in Spanish sign language by Soledad Melián García. The concert of Ida Susal closes the "Ciclo Autoras 2019" this Sunday, 24 March in Auditorio Alfredo Kraus.
...is Gran Hermano by the Spanish singer-songwriter Carmen Boza, from her 2018 album La Caja Negra. Carmen Boza plays this Saturday, 16 March in Auditorio Alfredo Kraus (Las Palmas de Gran Canaria) as a part of the "Ciclo Autoras 2019".
...is Machirulo Escóndete by Tongo, with guest artists La Mare, La Furia, La Otra and Vera of Mafalda.
