If you took two frustrated musicians and put them thirty feet above the streets of Digbeth Birmingham, added a dash of late night drinking, a two week bout of Pneumonia, a dozen microwaveable meals and a strong sense of togetherness, then cooked at gas mark 6 for two months solid ! You would find that The Mexicolas are a rather special dish indeed. Jamie Evans (Vocals, Guitars, Bass and Keyboards) and Tim TT Trotter (Drums, Percussion, Backing Vocals) have been hiding away since they formed in the spring of 2004. The result is an honest, gutsy collection of believable songs, fuelled by many personal experiences that both Jamie & TT have endured together over the two or so years that they have been friends, Expect to be moved, excited, impassioned and above all pleasantly surprised by their debut offering. The Mexicolas count The Police, Jason Falkner, Wes Montgomery, Bowie, QOTSA and The Stranglers as a few of their influences, although The Mexicolas write truly original music that have deep and powerful melodies, with a wise, soulful voice that belies the band’s years. The Mexicolas repertoire stretches from heart-wrenching ballads to fiery rock numbers, and Jamie can’t wait to share them… “…Really, I would love the songs to be heard on a massive scale, whilst staying true to myself. I only ever want to write honest believable songs...” JAMIE EVANS The songs basically reflect the past 3 years or so of my life, many ups and downs!! When I finish a song it feels like I’ve just been in therapy for a week, but I feel a massive weight off my shoulders. I’ve tried to avoid cliché’s as much as possible, which is a task in itself. The music however is equally important, providing the essence of the song, I’ve just been honest with myself whilst writing these songs, honesty gets you far in life, and it’s about time someone poured their heart out. There’s no room for contradiction in The Mexicolas dears!!!
