Los Pacaminos

Put those blues to one side for the evening, come and have a beer and tequila and kick up your heels!

LOS PACAMINOS

… have been playing together for 25 years. Starting in the early 90’s, and not meant to be anything other than fun. Fortunately, it was so much fun that no-one wanted it to stop!

Originally formed as a Tex–Mex band, they have now evolved a sound that’s all their own, taking in the influences of Ry Cooder, Flaco Jimenez, Roy Orbison, The Texas Tornados, Calexico, Ennio Morricone, Texas blues, a little bit of Country, Cajun, Conjunto and a hefty slice of Americana. The songwriting is strong, and blessed with more than a few good vocalists in the band the variety of material can be shaped to fit each singer.

All shows this year are in support of the recent release of Los Pacaminos’ 2nd studio album, A Fistful Of Statins. Google it, you’ll have to look hard to find a bad review!
