Featuring musical guests Claudia Valentina & Arturo Brena, Kéex

Equal parts singer, dancer and jaranera, Claudia Valentina epitomizes the mélange parfait of modern New York as a California-born, New York-raised daughter of Mexican and Jamaican immigrants. As a singer, Claudia has toured internationally to China, to perform at the Shanghai Expo as one of the soloists for the United Nations Singers. As a musician and dancer, she has recorded and toured the US and Mexico, as lead singer, playing the jarana (a string instrument from Veracruz) and doing traditional percussive dance on a tarima (wooden box) with the Afromexican NY-based Jarana Beat, winners of the 2015 Mexican Music Award for Best Contemporary Folk Band. Together with Arturo Brena, she formed Kéex - a Mayan word which means to arouse, provoke or stimulate. Their music does just that by telling stories of cultural adaptation from Mexico to the US, through song, dance, and dialogue.
