Karen Rodriguez is ready to take (Made in) America by storm…
The Peruvian and Dominican American singer and American Idol finalist will perform at Jay Z’s Made in America festival.
Rodriguez, who earned kudos for her bilingual cover of Adele’s “Hello,” joins a lineup that includes J. Cole, The Chainsmokers, Migos and Solange.
The Made in America festival will take place on September 2-3 in Philadelphia.
Elza Soares will be seeing Red (Bull).
The 79-year-old Brazilian samba queen, known as Tina Turner brasileira, will perform at this year’s ingeniously curated Red Bull Music Academy Festival.
The New York-based festival boasts a tantalizing array of music, art, film and dance.
In addition to Soares, beloved figures like Solange, Gucci Mane, New Jack Swing mastermind Teddy Riley and iconoclastic filmmaker Werner Herzog are all part of this year’s roster, as well as disco pioneer Patrick Adams and Detroit house legend Moodyman, who will perform a set in tribute to Prince.
