We’re thrilled to have Mestisa for the last night of the festival – come and join us celebrate this amazing music from South America.
Almost 22 years ago Ana Luisa and Barbara met in Leeds at one of the open
mic nights at The Grove and they’ve been playing and singing together ever since forming the core of Mestisa. The striking rhythms of their music together with their beautifully melded harmonies are what makes Mestisa very special. Mestisa performs traditional and popular music from Latin America: romantic Boleros, Argentinian zambas, Chilean tonadas and lively Bolivian huaynos. They have recently started writing and performing their own original songs, some of these may well appear in the set. Mestisa have headlined at Filey Folk Festival, Beverley Folk Festival, Seven Arts in Leeds, played at Kendal Calling, Bridgewater Hall, Musicport and Chapel Allerton Arts Festivals as well as taking part in several international concert seasons at Leeds University’s Clothworkers Hall.
Listen to Mestisa’s album.
