Lua has been described as a “cultural pollinator,” and the process of mixing and blending musical DNA is what defines the work of this exceptional group of musicians. Whether the group is playing its original songs, or more traditional melodies out of Veracruz or the hills of Southwest Virginia, you can hear the gentle collision of Scots-Irish and Mexican traditions weaving together to create a “Mexilachian” hybrid.

I wanted to thank you all for the AMAZING show you created last week. Personally, it was a joy to see you in your element and be able to sit quietly and listen with focus. The music is so rich, and the blend of traditions is inventive and intriguing. Your brief introductions really helped to provide context to each song and frame the whole evening as a “melting pot” of musical influences.
