About
Mezcla is a world jazz/fusion collective at the forefront of Glasgows vibrant improvised music scene. Led by bass player David Bowden (BBC Young Scottish Jazz Musician of the Year 2017), Mezcla features some of Scotlands brightest stars and is already attracting attention for its innovative blend of soulful jazz and energetic grooves.
