We’re bringing it back to the old ways and bringing you better days with the music style that was created right here in our own City by the Bay.
And we’re bringing it to the best venue in the original neighborhood for this music…
The Mission’s very own Roccapulco!
The Latin Rock scene burst out of the Mission District when The Santana Blues Band originated in the Mission(1966).
The name changed to just SANTANA and with the help of Bill Graham and Clive Davis -
A legend was born(1969).
Then came Malo, Sapo, El Chicano, and many others that emulated that Santana sound. For years that same sound has been copied and trounced on by many many groups.
The sound of Latin Rock had become stagnant and repititious by even Santana himself.
Then in 1999 Clive Davis put Santana together with many young and new pop artists and Santana resurfaced on the pop charts with a new fusion of Latin Rock with the Supernatural Album.
Around the same time LOS MOCOSOS were already bringing a new updated LATIN ROCK sound while still keeping loyal to the base ingredient of the style of music.
Santana himself said that LOS MOCOSOS and Ozomatli were the two groups that would take Latin Rock into the 21st Century. This is documented in the book “Voices of Latin Rock” which is the Bible of this music.
Cross Fire has been so far been known as a Santana Tribute Band but are now branching into new musical direction and will be cutting an album of originals in the near future.
These guys are the one’s to keep an eye on as they are accomplished musicians on the rise!
Los Cochinos are a newer group but have been rapidly climbing the ladder and being mentioned alongside all the top groups. The only way a new band can do that in such short time is by being dynamic.
That’s what Los Cochinos are…DYNAMIC!
Imani hasn’t been exposed much yet but he is about as talented as they come. His musical abilities are incredible and his songs are destined to be hits! You’ll love him and his performance.
He is a star in the making and his anthem “QUE VIVA” is bound to be an anthem to us all!
All in all this show is a portal towards the future of Latin Rock…come and take a look!
So bring your dancin’ shoes and get ready to rock and roll to some great Latin Rock and Oldies, with some surprises thrown in.
