This year marks the fourth time Alt.Latino has taken over the Tiny Desk for Hispanic Heritage Month for a series we (or should I say you all) have billed El Tiny, but its the first time we’ve curated it with a specific theme in mind: We’re doing what we do best and leaning into love. Because we know better than anyone that when our people talk about love, we do so deeply and in totality.
