Border Crossings

We are thrilled to announce Border Crossings, a multifaceted project that delves into the dynamic system of the Mexico/New Mexico border and its impact on both the creative process and the greater question of racial justice in our societies. The project, including the trio’s second album, is a respectful inquiry into the complexities of living in a border state and how that impacts the creative process.
