"On 18 January Socorro celebrates its second anniversary. The festivities will include concerts by three bands that exemplify the eclectic character and openness to all genres that has characterised this venue.

We'll start with the Tarantino-esque surf rock of Los Cudas, head down to West Africa with the soulful zouk of Claiana and end with the grindcore party train of Serrabulho.

And because none of the magic that happens here would be possible if we were alone, we'd like to thank everyone who's been here - audiophiles, avid or merely curious readers, artists and publishers - this is for you." - Socorro
