About This Event
At the Kupferberg Center for the Arts, Mexican singer Paulina — a former member of Timbiriche known for chart-facing Latin pop and a television-honed sense of timing — joins Angel “Papo” Vázquez and emerging artist Salcedo for the Papo & Paulina album release party. Salcedo's worship-rooted, Latin-leaning soul emphasizes direct address and steady vocal focus, while Paulina favors clean vocal lines and pop-oriented craft, shaping a bill built for rooms where attention and lyric carry the night.
About Popy y Palmas
“Popy y Palmas” arrives in New York as a live performance at the Kupferberg Center for the Arts. The work centers on popular song and dance traditions, tracing how they travel through family memory, migration, and everyday ritual. In a city where Caribbean and Latin American diasporas shape the sound of public life, it reads as documentation as much as entertainment. Its most telling move is its restraint: it lets the material’s social history come forward without forcing a lesson.
