Today’s a day to remember iconic Mexican singer Chavela Vargas, who passed away on this day in 2012 at the age of 93. Chavela had a resurgence of popularity in the 1990s, possibly in part due to Pedro Almodóvar including her music in several of his films.
Chavela Vargas is one of the 43 individuals commemorated on the Rainbow Honor Walk in the Castro district.
