The Latin Alternative

Recognizing the increasing diversity of public radio’s audience as well as ever-growing interest in Latin music from a non-Latino audience “The Latin Alternative” brings this music to you each week.
"The Latin Alternative" is co-hosted by two of the genre’s leading experts, Josh Norek (co-founder of the Latin Alternative Music Conference and frontman of Latino-Jewish rap group Hip Hop Hoodíos) and Ernesto Lechner (contributing writer for Rolling Stone, LA Times, & Chicago Tribune and author of the book ‘Rock en Español: The Latin Alternative Rock Explosion’). The program will focus on crossover-friendly Latin rock, electronic, funk and hip-hop artists.
