Movimientos and Global Local presents
Latin Quarter
Cargo
Thursday 28th January
7pm-1am
£6 adv / £8 door
A part of Global Local’s aim to get global music out to a wider audience the Latin Quarter showcase will give a taster of the fresh talent and new Latin acts set to storm the festival stages this year. Los Chinches have already made their mark in London within a year of forming blowing away audiences with their high tempo brand of Tropical Rock ‘n’Roll. Longjon La Flecha play psyched out uber-Latin Funk channelling the spirit of Alejandro Jodorowsky. Lokandes bring together musicians from all over the world to fuse Andean melodies and flutes with Reggae, Funk and Son. And Natema finish the night off with their energetic electronic beats mixed with Brazilian folkloric drums and accordion.
***Alborada has a £5 guest list to this event. To get on it, email: info[at]alborada.net with 'Movimientos-Jan10' in the subject line.***

More Info
As part of their - jammed out - monthly live Latin showcase night at the Notting Hill Arts Club and various live Latin music events across London Movimientos are already bringing together some of the most accomplished & exciting up and coming Latin-centric live music acts. From traditional roots music, global fusions, electronic and Latin alternative their events aim to showcase the diversity of the Latin culture in London & the UK.
In the last two years the partnership with the Global Local project has seen Movimientos involved in the programming of many different festival stages across London and UK that helped provide a vital platform for some of the new talent from both the Latin community and for some of the many bands that incorporate Latin, Brazilian, Indo-American and Spanish rhythms in their music.
