As an artist there is an interesting dichotomy of knowing the humbling and embarrassing truth of your own flaws while believing in yourself enough to create art. That air of self-importance is necessary for art's own existence. "It is definitely an interesting experience to create something with the hope that people are going to find meaning and value in it," explains Enrique Chi, singer/songwriter for Kansas City's Making Movies.
But maybe people will find value in it. Making Movies is arguably the only indie band in the Midwest writing songs in both English and Spanish. Their debut record Tierra Firme contains a story based on both their personal history and the rich history of the Caribbean part of the world. The founding members of the band, brothers Enrique and Diego Chi, were born in Santiago, Panama, moving to the Midwest in their youth.
