This month on on the Metropolitan Culture Corner, we speak with blues guitarist, singer, and songwriter Santos Puertas. Originally from the Catalan town of Sant Just Desvern, he spent a number of years in the U.S., learning from the legends of blues, country, and folk music in cities such as Austin, Texas. He has an almost encyclopedic knowledge of American roots music, and has gained the respect and admiration of top musicians in the genre in both Europe and America.

His main projects include his trio, Triple Santos, and The Suitcase Brothers: a duo with his brother Victor Puertas, also a singer, and a virtuoso harmonica player. The two have toured internationally, and they were tapped to compose the soundtrack for multiple Goya Award-winning documentary film El Bola by director Achero Mañas. They just released their fifth album, Love, Truth and Confidence, a tribute to the Piedmont Blues duo Sonny Terry and Brownie McGhee.
