Singer Lila Downs, is a prime example of the fruitfulness that results from the interaction of two different cultures in one person. Daughter of Mexican singer Anita Sánchez and American professor of arts and cinematography Allen Downs; her first years in Mexico, her life and education in California and Minessota; along with her natural musical talent, a marvelous voice and a great sense of showmanship converge into an extraordinary artist, who has become one of the great ladies of Latin american song, without losing her connection to the legacy of American music. Lila will debut in Jazz San Javier, where she'll perform various songs from her forthcoming album, as well as from her full repertoire.
