Sonoro | Jack Rico, Mike Sargent
Sheila E broke barriers as both a talented percussionist and an Afro-Latina artist. In this episode, she reveals the personal motivations behind creating her first salsa album now, "Bailar," and explores her relationship with Latin music and identity. Her answers offer a unique window into the challenges and triumphs of embracing heritage and language through music.
She also discusses how personal this salsa album was to her as a way to connect with her father, Latin jazz artist Pete Escovedo. This project was a challenge as she doesn't speak Spanish, but she was determined to share her passion for salsa with the world and inspire the younger generation to learn about this important genre in Latin music history.
