The buzz around Ana Tijoux has been steadily building since her Grammy nominated debut ‘1977’ was featured in ‘Breaking Bad,’ ABC’s ‘Dancing With the Stars‘ and EA Sports’ FIFA video game.  Ana Tijoux is also twice nominated for “Record of the Year” and “Song of the Year” for “Universos Paralelos,” her collaboration with Academy Award winner Jorge Drexler.

It was the fierceness, the original sound, the hodgepodge of styles — it was the clash of cultures and sound.
