The Pachuco culture was a unique youth movement that emerged in the border cities of El Paso and Ciudad Juárez in the late 1930s. It was a defiant subculture that blended Mexican and American identities, creating a powerful statement of self-expression and resistance. At a time when young Mexican Americans were pressured to assimilate into Anglo society, the Pachucos carved out their own path, forging a distinct identity that was neither fully Mexican nor fully American. | Chicano Story Project

Pachuco José will be opening up our event on September 16th! Pachuco Jose y Los Diamantes play Mexican rhythm and blues from the early 1940s. Their music is a mix of American rhythm and blues, swing, and Mexican culture, with a little samba and mambo thrown in. Their debut album, Vamos A Bailar, was released in 2013 as a tribute to Mexican performers from the 1940s.
