Frank McCulloch y sus Amigos (Frank McCulloch and Friends) have been playing together most Sundays at Java Joe's Downtown coffee shop in Albuquerque, New Mexico for the past seven years or so. Mostly Mexican or New Mexican in origin, their music is comprised of songs that many of us in the southwest grew up listening to or singing. In addition to performing regularly at Java Joe's Coffee Shop, the group also plays for occasional art openings, benefits, and receptions around Albuquerque. The group consists of Frank McCulloch, Melody Mock, Luis Campos, and various other friends who join them on Sundays at Java Joe's. |
