Caracas Band La Vida Boheme Pays Tribute to Radio Capital

The World

La Vida Boheme pays tribute to Radio Capital, a station that once ruled the rock airwaves, but now only airs government approved programming. Henry D’Arthenay is the lead singer of the Caracas-based band. He speaks to anchor Lisa Mullins about Radio Capital and other tracks on their new album, “Nuestra.”
