Do you enjoy eccentric Puerto Rican women in hoodies???

...then Mima is the girl for you!

A native of Santurce, PR and part time NYC resident. Since releasing her first project in 2002 she's become a veteran of both the New York and Puerto Rican indie scenes. Moving back and forth from two differnet worlds, in the past 7 years, her music has evolved. Her once loungey quasi bossa nova sound has given way in recent time to a MUCH more experimental avante garde sound. Of course you be the judge of which Mima you like the best, I'll just say the new Mima definitely puts on a entertaining show.

FYI....She'll performing today at the Coors Indie Fest in Aguadilla, PR today.

One thing is for sure, acts like Mima and Davila 666 are perfect examples of how Puerto Rico's music current music scene goes far beyond Salsa and Reggaeton. Be prepared to soon be hit in the face with a plethora of Boricua indie talent!!!

My favorite garage punk band from Puerto Rico: Dávila 666

"But Mike", you may ask, "how many punk bands are there in la isla del encanto??" To which I respond..."the hell if I know!" But these guys kick serious ass both figuratively and (unlike their emo-turned manerexic mainland contemporaries) literally. Besides I think rock due a few coños and cabrones.

If you happen to be in Aguadilla, PR this weekend, check Dávila 666 out at Coors Light Indie Fest along with Mima and Los Fabulosos Cadillacs.... TICKETS

Oh and fyi Parental Discretion is Advised...these boys to do naughty things en el Callejon
