We’re kicking off the 2024-25 Performing Arts Series with De Tierra Caliente! De Tierra Caliente is a dynamic Latin fusion band that ignites the air with vibrant colors and irresistible rhythms. Their music combines catchy melodies, unaffected lyrics, and a fusion of Latin, Caribbean, Brazilian and American rhythms, resulting in an unforgettable celebration of music and culture.

De Tierra Caliente delivers a musical experience that transcends cultural boundaries, reminding audiences of the simple pleasures that sometimes get overshadowed in the hustle of daily life. Their intoxicating songs in Spanish, English, and Portuguese resonate with the vibrant colors and familial warmth of a South American kitchen, leaving no one untouched by their infectious energy.

Co-presented by the Latin American, Iberian, and Latinx Studies departments at Bryn Mawr College and Haverford College.
