BEYOND THE MUSIC

Music is more than sound — it’s identity, memory, culture, and power. Hosted by Bacilia Angel, founder of IncludUs and co-creator of Grita Canta Vota, Beyond the Music goes deeper into the stories behind the artists shaping our communities and our democracy. Recorded at festivals, backstage, and inside the biggest cultural moments of the year, each episode brings raw, honest conversations with the musicians, storytellers, and leaders using their voices to move people — not just emotionally, but civically. From Latin Grammy Week to grassroots block parties, Beyond the Music explores the intersection of art, activism, identity, and the responsibility of culture-makers in a time when democracy is being tested. This isn’t a music podcast. It’s a movement podcast.  Because culture moves people — and people move change.
