Remezcla Talks To “Third-Culture Kid” Devendra Banhart

Devendra Banhart connects with his multicultural reality,” according to Remezcla, on his “buoyant tenth Album, Ma.” In an in-depth review that also includes parts of an exclusive interview with the Nonesuch-affiliated artist, the site explores how Banhart grew up as someone “caught in the middle: a California kid in Caracas and a Venezuelan back in the States. So, like any kid wrangling with their identity, he developed his culture and art by cobbling together the resonant bits and pieces of his lived experience with the ones he dug into along the way.” Full of insights, the review also includes embeds of all the album’s videos as well as a Spotify stream of the whole record.
