Mestizo Sounds presents MODS

Jazz Matters ·

2023/02/17

This is a programme dedicated to the cool sounds of the mods. A genuine youth movement originated in Great Britain in the swinging sixties years. London was the coolest place on earth between 1962 to 1964 when young people flew there in hordes to hang around the smokey jazz clubs in Soho. Vespas riding through the narrow streets of Central London and mini skirts wore by the thin London young girls. Jazz, Blues and Soul was the music to listen and great bands were emerging every day immersed in

2023/01/21

It, maybe, is an innocent account. Of course, the young did not take power. But without their artistic contribution, modern Spain would not have happened so fast. Music was the language in the creation of a new Spain. "La Movida" was enthusiastic, creative, irreverent and exuberant as never seen
