Pistolera - Tiny Desk Concert

Review by Ryan Musch

Pistolera's Tiny Desk Concert is a delightful fusion of Latin and folk music. The band's lead singer, Sandra Velasquez, has a powerful voice that beautifully complements the acoustic guitar, accordion, and percussion that make up the band's sound. The three songs they perform showcase the band's versatility, with "Polvo" starting off with a slow, mournful tone before building to a lively, upbeat chorus. "Escucha" is a more traditional Latin number, with a catchy melody that will have listeners dancing along. Finally, "Nuevos Ojos" is a haunting ballad that showcases Velasquez's vocal range. Pistolera's Tiny Desk Concert is a charming and engaging performance that will leave listeners wanting more.
