NPR’s Alt.Latino Show Features the Hernandez Brothers

NPR and the Hernandez Brothers

Following SPX in Bethesda, Gilbert and Jaime Hernandez were asked to be NPR's Alt.Latino show to celebrate their 30th Year Anniversary of Love and Rockets. Hosted by Felix Contreras and Jasmine Garsd, the show focuses on Latin Alternative music and rock in Spanish, from classics to new bands even you haven't heard of.

Jaime and Gilbert talked SO LONG about many songs, including some outside of the format of the show, that we had to switch studios.

The NPR building is mega sweet to say the least. While waiting for the show hosts, we were all escorted into the THINKING room with floor-to-ceiling whiteboards covering all the walls. Jaime and Gilbert immediately picked up markers to draw some characters.

An unexpected song is chosen when Jaime acts out what Hopey and Maggie would do if in a NPR studio. So enjoy the show and the Hernandez Brothers' thoughts on music and how it becomes a part of your world, a part of your characters. Luba and Gilbert

Gilbert and Luba. Jaime and Hopey. Great cartoonists can draw with any tools on any surface.
