Pacoima, CA is one of L.A’s oldest neighborhoods with a rich art history. All one has to do is drive down a major street in 91331 and see so many murals you might just get in an accident. In the middle of it all is Myke’s Café.
This week Rafael and David Andrade from Myke’s Café (mykescafe.com)come in to the studio to talk food, local art, tradition, and all things Pacoima. And, oh yea. The finest playlist in Soul n Funk roots music so fresh for you.
