ABOUT THE ARTIST
Chicano Batman
Formed in 2008, Chicano Batman has cemented its reputation as a musical trailblazer. NPR’s Alt.Latino lauded their distinctive sound in 2014, making it a fan favorite. The band embarked on a thrilling journey, supporting Jack White’s Lazaretto Tour in 2015, and gracing the Coachella stage in April of the same year. Their live performances continued to shine, with appearances at renowned festivals like Bonnaroo and LouFest in 2016, Coachella in 2017, and Sasquatch! Music Festival. Notably, they made their late-night TV debut on Conan in 2017 and even starred in a Johnnie Walker Scotch whisky commercial while leaving their mark on the silver screen in LOW RIDER (2016). Chicano Batman’s eclectic artistry knows no bounds, continually evolving and leaving an indelible mark on the music and entertainment landscape.
Lido PIMIENTA
Lido Pimienta is a multidisciplinary visual artist, art critic and curator. She is a composer and musical producer of Afro Indigenous (Wayuu) Ancestry from Colombia. Pimienta resides in Toronto, Canada, and has been performing live and exhibiting her work worldwide since 2010. She was the first female of color to ever compose and original score for the New York City Ballet Orchestra and is also the first ever Black and Indigenous woman to be debuting as a TV host, writer, and creator of a network show in Canada, LIDO TV; a variety show that explores themes like Feminism, Colonialism, and Success, with a hilarious twist and the help of puppets. Pimienta’s music and visual work navigate politics of gender, race, otherhood, and the construct of the Canadian Landscape in the South American diaspora and vernacular.
Lido Pimienta aims to create a sense of belonging and strength through diversity—Diversity as a feeling and Diversity as a verb. Born and raised in the Caribbean North Coast of Colombia, she draws and creates portraits of the familiar faces found in big crowds going about their day in a beautifully synchronized chaos of the places she calls home. These compositions all exist in what Pimienta calls CARIBE SUBLIME, in which she identifies the Caribbean coast of Colombia and peoples from African diasporas, their cultures and identities, not as exotic but Sublime.
An international artistic referent in her own right, Pimienta’s point of view and resistance to follow trends or participate in a narrative that demands racialized women to be a trope, has earned Pimienta a loyal following in both the mainstream and artistic arenas. With humor, irreverence and the tenderness that comes from her singing voice, Pimienta has positioned herself as a true Renaissance Woman.
