MESTIZX (singer Ibelisse Guardia Ferragutti from Bolivia and jazz drummer Frank Rosaly from Puerto Rico, now based in Amsterdam) unleashes a deeply personal and potent sonic tapestry. Their debut album weaves together avant-jazz, the vibrant ancestral rhythms of Latin America (Bolivia, Brazil, Puerto Rico), and the textures of electronica. This non-gendered exploration delves into themes of identity, decolonization, and the defiant spirit of ritual, born from their unique "in-between" experiences.

Also featuring the evolving and inventive soundscapes of Nicaraguan-Canadian artist Mas Aya, presenting his latest compelling musical journey.

Opening the evening, the debut collaboration of Daniela Solís & Stefan Christoff offers a deeply attentive and hopeful sonic experience, a Montreal-Mexico connection forged from their time and shared creativity in Mexico City.
