Talk So Real with Matt Sonzala: Coka Trevino - Season 2 Episode 9

Continuing on with my podcast series in which I sit down and talk with my friends who do dope things, on this episode I get to sit down with one of the dopest, Coka Trevino! I have known Coka for some years through the music scene here in Austin, we both tend to like good musics and such, and I have watched her ascent in the Austin art community from the moment we met. She is a super trooper in this city, state and world, bringing people together and showcasing artists who she finds to be amazing, and helping to give them the platforms that they need and deserve in a city that hasn't always embraced everyone equally - though through the work of many it is getting much better now. Seeing Austin open up and diversify (slowly but surely) is a beautiful thing and I am so thankful for organizations like The Projecto and Big Medium (and DAWA, Epistrophy Arts, HAAM y mas) for all of the work that they put in. On this episode we talk with Coka about moving to Austin from Monterrey, Mexico and her history in both cities, the Austin Studio Tour, life in Texas and how good it can be despite it also being quite fxxked, all sorts of things that two friends might talk about. That's what we are doing here with Talk So Real. Please like, subscribe, whatever you do on the internet and/or your phone.
