After announcing artists like Wilco or The Corrshe Western Soul surprises us with a new name that helps to further expand the range of styles that will meet at the two events of this name in Madrid and Barcelona. We talk about Mexicans The Tigers of the North.
Los Tigres del Norte were founded in 1968 by Jorge Hernández and his brothers who, since their beginnings, have addressed social issues, stories of immigrants, love and heartbreak, establishing themselves as a symbol of Mexican music. Their way of combining traditional northern music with elements of corrido and contemporary songs has earned them global popularity that is reflected in a career in which they have released more than fifty albums and received numerous awards, including Grammys and Latin Grammys. They have even participated in fourteen Mexican cinema films, an example of the cultural legacy they treasure.
The news is that they are joining the lineup of both editions of Alma, that is Alma Occident Madrid and Alma Occident Barcelona. They will act on June 29 at Parque Tierno Galván in Madrid and July 1 at Poble Espanyol in Barcelona. So now you know: they will be perfect nights to get carried away by the corridos, the rancheras, the cumbias and the quebraditas.
