About
CAFÉ TACUBA IN CONCERT:
Grammy-winning Latin rock outfit Café Tacuba has been wowing audiences with their eclectic sound and adrenaline-fueled live shows ever since their self-titled 1992 debut album first made them superstars in their native Mexico. Since then the band has won over fans around the world with their dynamic blend of rock, electronica, and folk music traditions, becoming one of Mexico’s chief modern musical exports in the process. At their live shows the band delivers their celebratory music with energy to spare, amping the audience up with call-and-response vocals and dramatic builds and releases. Even though they sing exclusively in Spanish their catchy choruses and infectious rhythms transcend language, appealing to fans of all nationalities. Whether they’re encouraging ticket buyers to clap along to the anthemic “Los Pajaros” or busting out solos on exotic indigenous instruments, Café Tacuba always delivers high-energy sets that fuse wildly diverse sounds into one cohesive and unforgettable concert experience.
BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:
Café Tacuba formed in Mexico City in 1989 while singer Ruben Albarran and guitarist Jose Alfredo Rangel were studying graphic design at the city’s Metropolitan Autonomous University. The band’s early sound was heavily influenced by British new wave bands like The Cure and The Smiths, but soon they were incorporating Mexican and indigenous influences to represent their heritage. After performing mostly in garages in the suburban neighborhood of Satelite the group became a fixture of the burgeoning music and arts scene surrounding the Coyoacan area of Mexico City. Their self-titled 1992 debut album combined genres like punk, ska, and hip hop with regional Mexican styles like bolero and ranchera, spawning five popular singles and earning them a Premio Lo Nuestro award for Video of the Year (“Maria”). A string of successful albums followed including 2003’s Cuatro Caminos, which won a Grammy for Best Latin Rock/Alternative Album. In addition to their celebrated recordings the band is a touring juggernaut known for their explosive live performances, and they continue to impress every time they hit the road.

by sonic on 7/16/09Gibson Amphitheatre at Universal CityWalk - Universal CityMan, they are an incredible band. Very talented all around, lots of different variety of music. The main guys voice can be offensive to some, but once you get used to the music, and their style, they are awesome. One of the best rock en espanol bands ever. Definitely see them at least once in your life...

by cheechie on 7/15/09Gibson Amphitheatre at Universal CityWalk - Universal CityAside from being stuck next to a female concert goer who appeared to not know she was in a concert. The concert was padre! Tacuba rocked oldies and new songs which kept the crowd going until 1130pm! Great rock concert! Oh and too bad for the nakos that do not know how to act civil and mosh without fighting and stomping on a guy who was down on the floor. Muy mala honda!

by VirgoMami on 7/15/09Gibson Amphitheatre at Universal CityWalk - Universal CityI attended the Cafe Tacvba concert along with my husband, cousin, his girlfriend and my sister.... we absolutely loved it!!!!! These guys always know how to put on a good show and engage everyone from young children to elderly folks into it..... I am 8 months pregnant and usually like to be in the pit but I enjoyed the concert from my Mezanine seat just as well...... Cafe Tacvba has been my favorite band for over 12 years and will continue to be... they still evoke enthusiasm in me now as they did 12 years ago!

Rating: 5 out of 5 Cafe Tacvba put on the BEST SHOW!!!
by IsabelFlor on 7/15/09Gibson Amphitheatre at Universal CityWalk - Universal CityI was excited to hear that Cafe Tacvba was celebrating their 20th anniversary that I knew I had to witness this event. The closest venue to me was Universal City so I made plans to be there. Cafe Tacvba played over 3 hours and put on a great show as always. They even had the "unofficial" fifth Tacvbo Alejandro Flores who joined them for a few songs...my favorite Las Flores. Thisi s the second time that I have seen them live and they started on time, interacted with the audience. My only regret is not having seats closer to the stage!
