A Cultural Anthropologist trained in Linguistic Anthropology, Ethnomusicology, and Folklore, Alex E. Chávez is the author of the book Sounds of Crossing: (Music, Migration, and the Aural Poetics of Huapango Arribeño).
Chávez's debut album, Sonorous Present, an immersive poetic and musical passage, extends sonic meditations on loss, migration, and mourning across America’s borderlands. What began as an improvised performance in 2019—inspired by the music and poetics of Chávez’s book Sounds of Crossing—has been reimagined as a studio album in collaboration with Grammy Award-winning producer Quetzal Flores.
