La Paz, Baja California Sur (OEM-Informex) .- Difficult situation for the enjoyment of street music in the face of the pandemic.

“There is a big difference between music that comes, they play you and you like, that you enjoy, you can contribute, you can cooperate well if you liked it, that contribution will be that good music continues to be made, continues to be created, improves its quality . On the contrary, if you don’t like something, don’t contribute it, don’t cooperate, because you don’t like it so that it doesn’t happen ”.
“Come and enjoy the places that have tables, places in the open air where we can enjoy good street music. Here we go every day trying to provide music, the companions that we are looking for daily, who value this culture, which is the music that they enjoy more than anything ”. I mention Eduardo who plays classical guitar and also sings.
