NPR Music's 25 Favorite Albums Of The Year (So Far) The Miami Herald Praises La Santa Cecilia’s Live Show & La Marisoul’s “heart-ripping Janis Joplin-esque voice”: “Fronted by the charismatic and joyously eccentric singer La Marisoul, Los Angeles-based Santa Cecelia is blending the melodic richness and thudding rhythms of Mexican regional music with blues, rock and a punchy energy reminiscent of zany ’80s punk-pop. …the passionate Marisoul showed off her heart-ripping ranchera diva/Janis Joplin-esque voice in powerhouse ballads like Falling. She and accordionist Jose “Pepe” Carlos have terrific chemistry, shimmying back and forth on the rollicking Monedita (about how money can’t buy happiness), his accordion weaving rhythmic and harmonic patterns around her voice. Bassist Alex Bendana played a funky, thudding backbeat that evoked norteño-style brass.Santa Cecelia showed its fun-loving streak in a cover of Soft Cell’s Tainted Love, and was heartbreakingly sincere on ICE (El Hielo), its ballad about the injustices of deportation and the immigration system.” – Miami Herald NBC Latino Profiles La Santa Cecilia – Saying They: “Pull together so many different genres from cumbia, salsa, ranchera, punk and hip-hop … ‘Treinta Días’ is fly and they have a big hit right now in ‘El Hielo (ICE)” - Watch Here: http://nbclatino.com/2013/06/11/cafecito-la-santa-cecilia-explain-the-inspiration-for-their-music/ Cafecito: La Santa Cecilia explain the inspiration for their music
