Billy Wylder
From the front-lines at Standing Rock to the archaic streets of Jerusalem, the Sahel Desert to Carnegie Hall, music has been the source of strength for Billy Wylder. The band features Avi Salloway (Bombino/Hey Mama) joined by an inspired cast of singular artists who have performed across five continents including concerts at Coachella, Newport Folk Festival, New Orleans Jazz Fest, Montreal Jazz Fest, Carnegie Hall, and Lincoln Center.
Billy Wylder released their seminal third album, Trying to Get Free (Sand & Gold Records), on August 25, 2023. The music weaves together American folk and rock with sensibilities from the Sahara Desert, exploring new musical space akin to Devendra Banhart, Beck, and Tinariwen. Billy Wylder’s new recordings evoke musical evolutions built on grooves informed by ancient African rhythms, art-rock textures, expansive guitars, violins, synths, and drum machines. Salloway’s lyrics flow with inspiration from mythical songwriting hero Leonard Cohen, while threading together more abstract imagery reminiscent of Thom Yorke.
Billy Wylder has performed and collaborated with renowned artists including Jack Johnson, the Preservation Hall Jazz Band, Bombino, The Low Anthem, and Pete Seeger.

Pulso de Barro are a lively band that share the healing power of music and dance by bringing community together. The musicians Maria Puente Flores, Mateo Cano, Víctor Lissabet, Ovi Horta, and Adriana Pericchi draw on their varied heritages (Mexican, Cuban, Colombian, Venezuelan and Puerto Rican) to create the band’s impassioned sound. Their repertoire includes traditional Afro-Amerindian rhythms such as Son Jarocho, Cumbia, Rap, Conga, and Reggae as well as their own funky compositions. The musicians play jarana, leona and requinto (stringed instruments), quijada, cajon, maracas, and marimba (percussion instruments), dance on the tarima (percussive platform) and pour their hearts out through their vocal harmonies. Pulso de Barro merges poetry and music as ways of coexisting reciprocally with nature.
