La Santa Cecilia Just Blew Our Minds with ‘Strawberry Fields Forever’ Music Video
*Props to our friends at Latino Rebels for catching this. VL
Grammy winners La Santa Cecilia just published a music video to the band’s remake of “Strawberry Fields Forever.” The clip needs no explanation.
According to a report earlier this year, the band’s remake is “a psychedelic cumbia rendition of the Beatles’ iconic ’67 single.” The group “dedicated ‘Strawberry Fields Forever’ to migrant agricultural workers. The recent Grammy winners cited the immigration and deportation of John Lennon as a touchstone to the struggle of migrant workers in the United States.
While we are at it, take it away, John.
