They have been featured on NPR's Alt-Latino and in 2016 performed at the Cactus Cafe as part of the NPR Tiny Desk Contest Tour. And mentioned in the 2018 NPR Tiny Desk All Songs Considered blog and NPR Alt Latino show.

Their musical focus is based on traditional Latin rhythms that are layered underneath melodic three part harmonies, and complemented by driving guitars, accordion, flute and synth.
From Rumba to Cumbia to Conjunto to Americana, Cecilia + the Broken Hearts is working to push the boundaries of music and create a perfect amalgamation.

Members include Mincho Jacob (bass), Melanie Morgan (accordian, flute, vocals), Estrella De Leon (vocals), Fabian Rincon (drums), Joe Rocha (guitar, synth), Mateo Clarke (vocals, violin), Annie Vandervoort (vocals, guitar, keyboard).
