Oaxaca Songbird

Lila DownsWhile in Oaxaca last week I was reminded that tickets are still available to see Lila Downs in London next month. She will perform at the Royal Festival Hall on 11th April as part of a wider European Tour. Downs was a hit at WOMAD last July and is sure to become more widely known in the UK as a result of the Frida Kahlo biopic currently on release, in which she can be both seen and heard. She will perform Oscar-nominated “Burn it Blue” at the Academy Awards ceremony on 23rd March.
