Be there as the Mexican-American Experience is celebrated through song, dance, music and film in this brand-new multimedia production.
This unique concert experience will feature Los Lobos performing a set of traditional Mexican music, accompanied by Ballet Folklorico Mexicano, followed by a second set filled with the band’s classic hits.
Los Lobos were already East L.A. neighborhood legends, Sunset Strip regulars and a Grammy Award winning band (Best Mexican-American/Tejano Music Performance) by the time they recorded their major label debut, “How Will The Wolf Survive?” in 1984.
Three decades, two more Grammys, a worldwide smash single (“La Bamba”) and thousands of rollicking performances across the globe later, Los Lobos is surviving quite well — and still jamming with the same raw intensity as they had when they began in that garage in 1973.
The band chronicles a key moment of their expansive journey on “Disconnected In New York City” — a dynamic live album that marks the band’s 40th anniversary and launches its new association with 429 Records.
