QUETZAL:
From the ashes of Los Angeles’ 1992 rebellion/riots arose a collective of East Side musicians committed to respectfully continuing the legacy of over 70 years of Chicano Rock. Standing on the shoulders of giants like Lalo Guerrero, Ritchie Valens, Cannibal and The Headhunters, The Brat, Los Lobos, and many others, Quetzal has created a path that has earned them the title of “one of Los Angeles’ most important bands”(LA Times.
The sound of Quetzal is as rich and complex as their pluri-ethnic barrio experience. Their unique combination of community activism and creative compositions has allowed them to travel the world using music as a tool for creating a global network of musicians committed to building community.
Most recently, they spent 9 months in Xalapa, Veracruz composing and recording music with women of “El Nuevo Movimiento Jaranero”, a music movement that spans across the south of the state. This project, titled “Entre Mujeres”, will be released Fall of 2009. Currently, Quetzal is working on its fifth studio album to be released Spring 2010.
