Albóndigas en Chipotle w/ Cecilia Cassandra Peña-Govea, aka La Doña

The Flaky Biscuit Podcast

Host Bryan Ford is joined by singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Cecilia Peña-Govea, AKA La Doña. Born in San Francisco, California, La Doña combines her deep roots in Latin folk traditions, like corridos and rumba, with the propulsive modern sounds of reggaeton, cumbia, and hip hop. La Doña coined the term “Femmeton” to describe her auto-referential songs about love, sex, gentrification, and the radical joys of being a queer brown woman in the Bay Area. Her song, “Quién Me La Paga'' was the first of the New York Times Magazine’s “19 Songs that Matter Now,” for 2020, and her EP, Algo Nuevo, was selected by the San Francisco Chronicle as one of the 6 best albums of 2020. She recently embarked on her own headline run in November 2022, and she has performed at ACL, Lollapalooza, and Format Fest.

In addition to her many altruistic, academic, and musical accolades, Cecilia is also a cook. Bryan swaps notes with her on the best way to prepare Albóndigas en Chipotle, a type of Mexican meatball.
