Café Tacvba is ready to perk up the United States with the band’s Latin art rock sounds…
The Mexican band, consisting of Rubén Isaac Albarrán Ortega, Emmanuel “Meme” del Real Díaz, José Alfredo “Joselo” Rangel Arroyo and Enrique “Quique” Rangel Arroyo, has announced plans to perform in 14 U.S. cities including L.A.’s Nokia Theatre, New York’s Hammerstein Ballroom and Austin City Limits Live.
Café Tacvba’s tour will kick off August 29 at The Warfield in San Francisco.
It’s the first extended U.S. tour by the eminent Mexican quartet since the release of their album El Objecto Antes Llamado Disco, widely acclaimed for the 20-plus-year-old group’s progressive fusion of rock, folkloric and electronic sounds.
Earlier this year, the band gave its first-ever performance at the SXSW Film Conference and Festival, as well as took the stage at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in Indio, California.
Watch Café Tacvba perform their classic “El Baile y el Salon” at Coachella earlier this year.
