The Freight's second annual Legacy Festival honors the Father of Chicano Music, Eduardo "Lalo" Guerrero. Co-curated by The Freight's Director of Programming PC Muñoz and Lalo's son, recording artist Mark Guerrero, this celebration gathers modern musical icons shaped by Lalo's legacy with two nights of concerts and other activities including a participatory Lalo Guerrero ofrenda, a marigold-making station, and free snacks while they last.
Lalo Guerrero (1916-2005) was a Mexican-American artist whose restless versatility spanned salsa, norteña, banda, rancheras, boleros, corridos, cumbias, mambos, cha cha chás, swing, rock & roll, and blues. A recipient of the NEA National Heritage Fellowship and the National Medal of Arts, he left a body of work that still echoes across genres and generations.
