Spotlight Conversation: Musician Ruby Ibarra

Through the decades, CAAMFest has been a platform for iconic and emerging music acts. From Awkwafina to Jake Shimabukuro to Thao Nguyen. Continuing on this vibrant tradition, CAAMFest is thrilled to have Filipina American rapper, music producer, and spoken word artist Ruby Ibarra as a Spotlight honoree.

Featured in the docuseries ASIAN AMERICANS, Ruby raps in Tagalog, Waray, and English and her raps concern her cultural heritage and her experiences as an immigrant to the United States from the Philippines. We will be sitting down with Ibarra and explore her music career so far and what’s coming next.

Co-presented by Asian Pacific Islander Cultural Center, Bindlestiff Studio, AYPAL: Building API Community Power, Kearny Street Workshop and Undiscovered SF.

Conversation moderated by Felicia Chanco, Digital Producer, Tiny Cast Co.
