Introducing La Unica

Who would have thought to blend traditional Irish sounds with Latin music? La Unica did!

Promoting themselves as "America's Best Irish Latin Rock Band", La Unica has performed up and down the east coast for over a decade. They readily acknowledge the niche nature of their music, in their interview with The Rant they mention that there are only about six bands worldwide that perform the same style they do (and that some of those bands may no longer be performing).

La Unica is a good example of what we try and do with Carolina Indie Fest - provide a lineup of artists that doesn't represent just one genre. They'll be playing from the same stage as indie rock, pop, country, blues & alternative bands and at least a couple bands that I struggle to pin down as a single genre. This diverse lineup is our answer to an era in which we are increasingly siloed by music providers as being the type of person who listens to particular genres, and then is fed opportunities to listen to artists within those genres.

Some good examples of La Unica's music include Dame Sabor and Revelation. La Unica take the stage at 3:15pm on Saturday, May 24th at Carolina Indie Fest.
