Bakotunes Proudly welcomes...

Latin alternative rock icon...CECI BASTIDA!

A familiar face to fans of early Latin rock or roc en español - if you prefer, as keyboardist and vocalist to Tijuana, Mexico ska / punk music legends, Tijuana No!, Bastida is ready to show off her new solo-prowess to the world.
 
Indiscriminate music fans should already know Bastida’s place in the genre’s history.

 
Singing lead on two of Tijuana No’s signature tunes, “Pobre De Ti,” and an English cover of The Clash's “Spanish Bombs,” she also travelled the globe touring with critically acclaimed artist and friend, Julieta Venegas.

Now solo, Bastida is preparing to make her own waves in 2010 with a new, full-length release coming in March.
 
Bakotopia spent some time with Bastida via-telephone from her LA residence Dec. 10, a few hours before her final show of ‘09 at East LA’s Eastside Luv club to talk history, her future and capricious American music fans.

proudly welcomes
Louie Perez
of
LOS LOBOS

-Founding member Louie Perez, talks about being ahead of the pack with one of America's greatest rock and roll bands of all-time!

-Born in East LA, in 1972, Los Lobos have been combining the sounds of traditional Mexican music, with American rock, blues, funk, and jazz, creating some of the most critically acclaimed recordings of any group in the history of popular music.

-Saxophonist Steve Berlin was once a member of pioneering punkabilly band, The Blasters, before becoming a Lobo!

-The band's first gig was serenading one of their mother's for her birthday!

-Find out how the band went from playing in restaurants to finding themselves in front of a rowdy punk rock crowd, then into the pages of Rolling Stone!

-Los Lobos didn't write 'La Bamba', it wasn't even Richie Valens either, but Los Lobos did help to make it a household name with the release of a bio-pic of the same name!

And so much more!

*Recorded 9 -12 - 07

PLUS! Music from Los Lobos, "Don't Worry, Baby!"
