Our site is dedicated to everything rock and metal with a few sidesteps in music that appeals to the same music fans like synthwave, neo (pagan) folk, industrial,… But some of us do have a taste for music and art that goes beyond these limitations. Enter “GRIMM goes rogue”: where you’ll get a metalhead, punker, rocker,… who ventures into realms beyond their usual habitat with an open mind and give their honest opinion, views and experiences.
"A mind is like a parachute. It doesn't work if it is not open."
Frank Zappa
When you have new friends in Mexico who are musicians, one of your ‘obligations’ is to participate in some way in their growth and help in any way you can, a reciprocal feeling to acquire new opportunities in a new country. I’m very grateful to Chuy Guevara and his project, The Mexican Walker, for the opportunity to be present at a huge party featuring one of the most important Mexican bands of recent times, Kinky.
The usual press conference, at a prestigious hotel in the city of San Luís Potosi (SLP), was used to talk a little about what was being prepared for the following day at the city’s theater in Tangamanga Park. A good mood, a full room and lots of questions made us look forward to a big and memorable show.
Kinky are an electronic rock band who also mix other musical genres, making them popular with a wide audience. With over 20 years’ experience, the project is respected and admired both nationally and internationally.
Opening the night on Saturday, The Mexican Walker gave their biggest performance to date, the home band from SLP managed to reach a wider audience and presented their best version, making the most of the opportunity. The project mixes electronic sounds and traditional instruments, immersing us in an immersive soundscape.
Performing in a hybrid form, Sussie 4 turned the venue into a giant open-air discotheque. Technology hand in hand with the organic, just two men managed to infect a crowd in an intense and long-lasting way, for around 2 hours in which they ‘pumped’ and made people dance to the sound of their very strong mixes.
Even after an intense set by Sussie 4, the SLP crowd still had plenty of energy to unapologetically welcome Kinky, the band from Monterey back in a big way. Their songs are catchy, they’re on the radio, on TV, in films all over the world and everyone knows them and dances to them. An unforgettable evening for those who attended, a huge Saturday night party with good vibes and positive energy.
A big thank you and compliments to Thanku Entertainment for the excellent organisation of a great event.
