Overview

• Xava Drago announced in early August that his recurrent gastric cancer had advanced to a terminal stage, prompting a shift to palliative care.
• Coda and fellow musicians confirmed “Eternamente Xava” at La Maraka in Colonia Narvarte, with the singer expected to attend on September 25.
• Guest performers from Víctimas del Dr. Cerebro, Jaguares, Amantes de Lola and La Ley, along with artists like Salvador Moreno and Cha, will share the stage in his honor.
• Toño Ruiz and Chucho Esquivel of Coda described the devastating impact of Drago’s prognosis and said the homage is timed so he can still feel the audience’s support.
• Supporters have maintained fundraising efforts for his palliative needs since May, and Drago has continued creating new music despite his weakened condition.
