All Of It with Alison Stewart | Feb 28, 2024

Last week, Afro-Cuban singer Daymé Arocena dropped her first full-length project in five years. Her latest album, Alkemi, fuses Neo-soul vocals with Afro-Caribbean beats and pop textures. The album is also produced by Calle 13's Eduardo "Visitante" Cabra. Arocena joins us for a Listening Party and to discuss her residency at NYU's Hemispheric Institute of Performance and Politics ahead of her album release show at The Sultan Room tomorrow at 7:00 p.m.
