Event Information
Welcome to the Tex-Mex fun as Los Pacaminos invite you on a tequila-fuelled journey into Mexican border blues.
The spirit of Tex-Mex lies somewhere between the Mariachi and Norteno styles of Mexico and the Country/Blues sounds of South-West America. It’s played by such luminaries as Ry Cooder, Flaco Jimenez, The Texas Tornados and Los Lobos.
They are all seasoned musicians in our own right, but you’ll probably have heard of one of the members in particular. A certain Mr Paul Young, one of the UK’s best-loved vocalists, fronts the band.
"It’s real bar room stuff: foot stompers, not too many slow songs – a real party atmosphere."
A typical Pacaminos set might include ‘Wooly Bully’, ‘La Bamba’ and sometimes, if enough tequila is flowing, ‘Speedy Gonzales’.
