The Music Scene in Buenos Aires - www.ChrisBernay.com
Tuesday, January 5, 2010 at 1:03AM Argentina's capital Buenos Aires may be known for an icon or two, but one of its hidden gems is its music scene.
As a reflection of the city's latin soul and as an immigrant melting pot, Buenos Aires is one of the worlds most multi-layered and fascinating cities (if you push beyond those tired tourist cliches, so tired as not to be repeated here) where music - and we are not just talking tango here - flourishes in a young, cultured and outwardly thinking, party minded population - known as porteños.
And nobody parties like porteños.
Chris Bernay, a local photographer has captured both the city's local and visiting music scene, and has recently launched a website - www.ChrisBernay.com, features a selection of his work, including that of Lykke Li, below.
So if you intend to head south of the border and party like a porteño, check out Chris Bernays site, it will be ahead of the music curve by featuring intense, soulful images like these shot at music events in Buenos Aires through 2010 and beyond.
