Transplants Nicolas Losada and Julianna Ronderos have brought the vibrant colors of their native Columbia from their country, to our backyard. The duo – under the name Il Abanico – has made Brooklyn their new home, and just might make things here a little more con vida for the rest of us. From the balloon-toting, floor tom stomping bear in latest video ‘Keep Calling,’ to the bilingual inventions of lead singer Juliana, their new EP ‘Crossing Colors’ weaves a cultural rainbow of shapes and sounds together that you won’t need a passport to experience. – Read Mike Levine’s interview with the band here, and see the band live on Friday November 11 at Rockwood Music Hall.
