Polkas, pies and another dead mural

Dear Play Listers,Do you know what “La Chona” is? My 8-month-old son danced to it for the first time with me last Saturday at the Polkas Norteñas Fest at the Indiana State Museum.Musician Polka Bob from Indy Polkamotion was there to highlight the musical connections between Europe and the north of Mexico. Indy Folklore Academy and Grupo Folklorico Macehuani were there, too.Listen here and then dance around your kitchen so that you get an idea. (They say everyone should dance to “La Chona” at least once in their lives.)Anyway, we have art news today about things going on in the city, including a benefit concert to raise funds for people affected by the recent floods and the scoop on the new Pots & Pans Pie Co. location. Stick around for a summery radish recipe with community cookbook writer Keaun Michael-Brown — he’s taking us to the Philippines this time.Buckle up and let’s get to it!Get more Indianapolis arts and culture coverage at MirrorIndy.org/Arts.You can also subscribe to get the Play List email newsletter.
