They take coffee with mescal

Lila Downs is one those women that has a voice that makes your spine shimmy, a staggering compositional range and backs herself up with players that rock. Her latest album, La Cantina, features a number of different styles and tones and she sounds killer from beginning to end. This song is just a beginning of a taste. There's some other live videos available on You Tube but beware, the quality isn't so good on most.
