This roundtable brings together Latina/o American music scholars charged with a collaborative assignment: each panelist will bring in a meditation on voices in songs from 1968 and reflect upon the political, aesthetic, and technological transitions made lively in them. Alejandra Bronfman will turn up the volume on the muted female voices of reggae, primarily Judy Mowatt. Licia Fiol-Matta will discuss Chavela Vargas, who came to embody Mexico’s “queer singer for the nation.” Alexandra T. Vazquez will continue her to feel her way around the loose aesthetic category she calls “Gulf Stream Psychedelia.”
