friday frequencies...a moody Mexicana

This week we're posting a couple of clips from a Mexican singer named Sara Valenzuela. We don't know a lot about her other than we like her sound. We probably first heard her on KCRW.com, a great on-line radio station from LA (see the Ear Candy listings to the right for the link), or perhaps a podcast series we have called Ritmo Latino, a great eclectic music program that has now ceased publishing (although it's probably still available on iTunes). Her sound is reminiscent of Suzanne Vega in that indie/ folkie kind of way.

First up is Lado Este ("East Side", we think):

Next is Esta Vez ("This Time" ?):

Here's a bio on her from Yahoo. And here's a link to her MySpace page. we hope you like.

Have yourselves a great weekend!
