La reapropiación y la vida.
Lima, Breña.
If DL could travel back in time, visiting the moment when Peruvian Scissor Dancing began seems like a good place to start the journey.
Black Sugar “Pussycat”
Black Sugar (orignally known as Los Far Fen) is a Peruvian funk band from the 1970’s that was created during the Velasco regime. During that time, Peru was banned from rock music coming out of America and Europe and all concerts and live entertainment ceased. It was in that oppressed time where these cats teamed up to provide us with some of the best funk music ever created.
Album: Black Sugar (1971)
