While the De la Rocha encounter may seem unexpected, it's actually part of a deliberate effort to bring Chicano and Mexican musicians together through a network of collaborations called Fandango Sin Fronteras, with adherents from San Jose to Santa Ana.
De la Rocha, a second-generation Chicano, started studying the jarana guitar two years ago and traveled this year to Veracruz for the annual son jarocho festival.
