REMEZCLA » CONCERT - MIAMI » Event: Caetano Veloso
The Avengers killed at the box office this past weekend - and is really, really awesome - but it's a team of white dudes. (One of them is sometimes green.) In other words; where are the Latin superheroes? Well, we at Remezcla have compiled a list of superheroes who do in fact, look like us.
In this interview, guitarist Leo Mintek of New York's future rock quintet Outernational had plenty to say about imperialism, capitalism, immigrants rights, and revolution in this exclusive interview.

If you’re a fan of bossa nova and MPB, there’s a high chance you’ll geek out when you read this: Living legend Caetano Veloso will be in town this Tuesday 20, performing at The Fillmore (Jackie Gleason Theatre). The melancholic Brazilian crooner will be performing rock-ish bossa ballads off his 41st (yes, 41st) album, titled Zii e Zie.
Since his first release in 1967, Veloso has remained a consistent hit-maker in his enormous, culturally diverse home country. His musical breadth rivals that of Frank Zappa, and as a poet, Veloso is adored for his lyrics by Brazilians the way Americans love Allen Ginsburg, another passionate and witty observer of modern life. At the same time, Veloso is mainstream — a bossa nova man who went psychedelic and came back. While other pop icons of the ’60s and ’70s have passed into obscurity, or the great beyond, Veloso — gracefully aged but still hip — continues to produce new music.
