Sound Influence: The Art and Soul of Puerto Rico

Puerto Rico has long been a hub of passion, culture, and creativity, influencing artists across the globe and Sound Influence: The Art and Soul of Puerto Rico is a celebration of its power to inspire. Narrated by Puerto Rican icon Luis Guzmán, this four-part series pairs stories from some of the Island’s most exciting musicians, including Los Rivera Destino, Pachyman, and Andrea Cruz, with major artists outside of music, such as Hollywood film director Miguel Arteta, Oscar-nominated screenwriter Jose Rivera, author Jaquira Diaz, and legendary EGOT Rita Moreno. Through the words of the Island’s most famous and talented artists, listeners will get to know Puerto Rico’s incredible towns, cities, beaches, rainforests, mountains, bars, and dance clubs that not only shaped their work but ultimately influenced global culture. Sound Influence: The Art and Soul of Puerto Rico is a production of Talkhouse and Atlas Obscura, presented by Discover Puerto Rico.
