/24-7PressRelease/ - Los Angeles, CA, July 17, 2008 - MEZKLAH's sound has been described as "a very intelligent mixture of traditional Latin music, alternative rock, jungle, reggae, ska, dub, and drum-and-bass," (Indie Music Stop) gaining them a reputation as "one of L.A.'s most powerful and promising alt-Latino bands." (Los Angeles Times) They have toured internationally, hitting Latin America, Europe and Japan, playing to a crowd of 20,000 at Mexico City's La Feria del Libro festival and delivering Memphis, Tennessee's first rock en español concert along the way. They have opened for Ozomatli, Kinky, Maldita Vencidad and Antibalas - just to name a few - and gained a fan in Ry Cooder, who personally approached the group to record a track for a future compilation of different genres of Los Angeles music. Mezklah is currently recording tracks for their new EP Bestia Zonika, the follow up to their acclaimed debut album Spider Monkey.
MEZKLAH will be continuing their longstanding supportive relationship with KPFK at the event, where they will be the only musical act performing. Tickets are on sale for $35 and $25 per person.
