AUSTIN CITY LIMITS

With multiple Latin Grammy and Billboard award nominations and dozens of hits throughout the globe, Manu Chao is an international star. A truly multicultural artist, Chao's work combines punk rock, salsa, reggae, ska, French chanson and Algerian rai, among other styles. He's as likely to sing in Portuguese, Arabic and Wolof as in Spanish, French or English but "Chao's music is so sonically vivid, so gloriously evocative, translation seems almost superfluous" (Entertainment Weekly).
