Mexican American musicians Maria Puente Flores, Mateo Cano, Víctor Lizabeth, Oviedo Horta Jr explore the tradition of Son Jarocho as Pulso De Barro. Pulso de Barro merges poetry and music as ways of coexisting reciprocally with nature. Their band's name (and the name of their weekly radio show in Kingston) Pulso de Barro translates as “pulse of the clay” referring to a unifying earth pulse that makes the building blocks of story and culture.
The musicians draw on their varied heritages (Mexican, Cuban, Venezuelan and Puerto Rican) to create a synthesis that rises above the sum of its parts. Members play Jarana and Leona (stringed instruments), quijada, cajon, maracas, and marimba (percussive instruments), dance on the Tarima (percussive platform) and sing folk and original compositions called Versadas.

PULSO DE BARRO
Lead by Mateo Cano and Maria Puente Flores, Pulso brings traditional Son Jarocho from Veracruz, México to the Hudson Valley.

Race Brook Lodge is a hidden gem in The Berkshires, at the foot of Mt. Race and a short hike from the Appalachian trail. The yoga & event barn at Race Brook is simultaneously rustic and sublime, steeped in hundreds of years of New England history. The Stagecoach Tavern is unpretentious fine dining, exquisite farm-to-table cuisine in a relaxed atmosphere. Much of the food is sourced from Race Farm, right on the property!
