Jorge Requena Ramos is the frontman of[ The Mariachi Ghost](http://www.themariachighost.com/), and he's on the show to talk about the group's marriage of traditional Mexican music and more experimental rock sounds. We also talked about his role as artistic director of the West End Cultural Centre, his work toward fighting racism and seeing a greater diversity of opportunities in the Canadian music scene for BIPOC creatives... and much more.
