Los Mocochetes
Los Mocochetes are a Chicano Funk band from Denver, CO. This colorful cast of characters fuses thoughtfully brazen, socio/politically charged song lyrics, groovilicious melodies and high-energy stage antics to create an immersive experience unlike anything you’ve ever seen before. Much like a machete, which can be used either as a tool to build or a weapon to kill, they have chosen to use their music to inspire and encourage positive social change. Every show is different, but it’s always a dance party with a purpose!
The current lineup features artists with a wide variety of influences. They are poets, singers, painters, rappers, actors, musicians, dancers, producers, composers, dreamers, doers, thinkers. They are gente who make music together and enjoy all forms of creativity. The Mocochetes are here to ignite a fire in every audience member to enjoy the moment and then go out and make a difference!
2MX2
2MX2 is a Latin Pop/Hip Hop group out of Colorado. They are well known for their modern renditions of traditional Latin music into danceable urban rhythms on topics such as immigration, health, education reform, and other important matters of out times. The band consists of members Owen Trujillo aka 01 who was born in Zacatecas Mexico, and Denver natives, Juice ET Hugo, Lolita, DMD and Kenny O.
Thursday Nights at the Museum
The Longmont Museum exhibits and galleries are open until 9 pm on Thursday nights. Unwind after work with a beer or glass of wine and create art in one of our adult Art & Sip classes or join us for a Thursday Nights at the Museum program to see a movie, catch a great band, or hear extraordinary people talk about issues of importance to Boulder County and beyond. Many of the programs take inspiration from our current exhibition “agriCULTURE” Art Inspired by the Land.
We hope to see you on Thursday nights this fall.
