Jim Harrelson founded
La Mezcla in 2005, after living and traveling throughout Latin America and Europe.
His influences range from flamenco guitar rhythms, to Ruben Blades
of Panama, and Silvio Rodriguez of Cuba.
He was first introduced to Latin music by friends within the exiled
Chilean community living in Montreal - His passion for the music grew as he
lived and traveled throughout Mexico, Latin America and Europe.
Jim’s unique adaptations of their songs, as well as his own song
writing and playing, has won crowds over from Mexico to Arizona and
even the streets of Amsterdam.
Accompanied byMichael Panos
on guitar and mandolin, with Adam Meyers on
bass, violin and keyboard, with Richard Speer and Lonnie Brock on
congas and percussion, La Mezcla is becoming a featured band throughout
Southern Arizona and along the Mexican border. Bisbee native Phil Hirales adds his passionate trumpet, sax, flute, and keyboards to the mix.
