Not to be confused with Costa Rica’s the Saint Cecilia, who recently played the first weekend of ACL Fest, this Los Angeles combo climbed a far bigger stage. Traditionally instrumented quartet shaking out cumbias, bossa novas, and boleros, indie missionaries La Santa Cecilia garnered a Grammy a decade ago now behind the timeless Spanish of singer Marisol Hernandez.

Two nights, muchos tragos. – Raoul Hernandez
