The NPR Music's Tiny Desk Contest highlights the wealth of musical talent from the U.S. and Puerto Rico, inviting submissions from numerous bands in hopes of winning a coveted performance slot. Each year, the Alt.Latino segment focuses on a selection of Latin-identifying bands from the many entries. While only one winner can be declared, this initiative shines a light on the vibrant contributions from artists and brings attention to the richness of Latin music within the contest.
With almost 200 entries to choose from, the selection for the six we feature was tough. But we gave it our best.
Each year here at Alt.Latino, we like to spotlight a handful of the bands that self-identify as Latin.
