Los Tacvbos are back, continuing their 20th anniversary tour. Not for nothing, they are one of the biggest acts in the Latin American rock scene for the past two decades. Mexican music scene is back in the Chi and what better way to spend the night than to sing to old classics as well as more recent hits from Sino? Well, nothing, that’s what!
“With rare objection, Café Tacvba is credited far and wide as the preeminent band to have arisen from the rock en español movement of the early ’90s. The Mexican four-piece unfortunately isn’t well characterized by the rock en español tag, for the “rock music sung in Spanish” descriptor does little justice to the stylistic diversity and creative strides showcased by Café Tacvba over the course of their career. The band employs a standard rock lineup of guitar/bass/drums with vocals, certainly, but the members also incorporate electronics as well as exotic instrumentation into their music, which encompasses styles as divergent as punk and ballads as well as regional Mexican and ambient electronica.” -All Music Guide
