Día de los Muertos

Anna explores the traditional music of Mexico on their Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead).

Travelling Folk celebrates the richly diverse music of Mexico on el Día de los Muertos (the Day of the Dead). Every year, communities come together on this date to remember loved ones past and celebrate their lives with music, dancing, and feasts. We travel from Northern Mexico to Veracruz, dipping into genres such as Son Jarocho, Ranchero and Corrido. Plus, there's a little hint of spook to the music from this side of the Atlantic.
