Fresh Tracks: Cristian De La Luna remains optimistic on funky new album

Cristian De La Luna sees himself as an optimist. Joyful enthusiasm propels much of his musical work, which balances Latin-pop with folk and jazz. Now De La Luna is shifting his focus to childhood memories while maintaining hope for the future on his new album, ¿Qué Pasará? (What Will Happen?)

Recorded partly in Mexico, ¿Qué Pasará?’s 10 tracks are a breezy listen. De La Luna sings in Spanish, but the emotions and feelings are felt through his music, which ranges from passionate to contemplative.
