This week finds me and Anamaria in Bilbao, Spain, attending the BIME Latin music conference. We've soaked up a lot of new music that spans genre, style and tradition as we walk about this beautiful city in between panels and sessions.
On this episode, we share with you some of the music that makes us feel like we are in the musical space where flamenco can dominate but doesn't blot out other traditions. In fact, as you'll hear in this episode, flamenco often is just the start of amazing musical and cultural mash-ups. Walk with us and hear for yourselves.
Featured songs

- Rels B and Lia Kali, "La Vida Sin Ti"
