about

Resistir calls for resistance against injustice and signals the power of ancestral knowledge, indigenous spirituality, and cultural memory in the face of militarized border violence, racial profiling, and drug wars. The album breaks down histories of colonialism in Texas and beyond and pushes education and awareness in these current times of continued occupation and violence.

The tracks on the album draw from cumbia, son jarocho, Tejano, funk and features Grammy Award winning producer Adrian Quesada (Brownout, Black Pumas) along with a host of musical guests: Beto Martinez (Grupo Fantasma), Daniel French (Las Cafeteras), Roberto Livar (Bombasta), Easy Lee (Third Root), DJ Chicken George (Third Root), Maya Guirao, Reyna Zavala, Jaime Ramirez, Ali Friedrich, Apaso, Kree23, and R.E.L (Chisme).

Wow, absolute goodness! The last two songs on the album are likened to a one-two punch from a skilled boxer, precision and power. Masterful production and thoughtful lyrics that can be played anywhere, anytime, and for anyone. Well done to all involved, the hard work and meticulous craftsmanship is very much appreciated.

This is the unexpected hit album of 2020 going even stronger in 2021. There’s something in here for everyone produced by the talented Configa and written by Speech. An alternative Lennon & McCartney partnership, has produced stunning tracks like Becoming, Amazing, and Young Americans. Do your record collection justice and make it badass by ordering the limited edition Vinyl or download on iTunes etc you won’t regret it. Robin McNamara
