July Recap Pt 1: Chicano Soul

Chicano Soul recap!

Last weekend marked the closing of the Chicano Soul exhibit at the South Texas Pop Culture Center. With a panel moderated by Sarah Gould, the group explored and discussed contemporary music in a post-WWII San Antonio. Highlighting the teenage rock 'n' roll movement, low-rider car culture, the importance and global influence of chicano soul, the panelists also engaged in questions from the audience on the record labels, radio scene of the '60s and '70s, and chicano music today.
