Date/Time: Aug 6 2017, 8:00 pm to 3:00 am
Vancouver, Rickshaw Theatre | Event calendar
This is only Alex Lora second date in Canada, and the first time on the west coast with the fullband, having played in Montreal in 2002. The band, with high-octane lead singer Alex Lora, is expected to play classic songs such as "Las piedras rodantes" and "Triste cancion" along with some of their newer tunes like "Contigo me conformo" and Me vale Madres" to rile up the crowd. It promises to be a high energy show, one not to be missed, as this opportunity doesn’t come often.
About El Tri Referred to as the grandfathers of Mexican rock, the band El Tri was formed in 1985 by Alex Lora from his earlier band Three Souls in My Mind that he had been with since 1968. El Tri was the first Mexican rock band to have a Gold certified record with their album "Simplemente", which contains their first single: "Triste Canción". In 1986, their song "Vicioso del rocanrol" became a hit in Peru, topping radio charts there. To this day, the band is revered in Peru, as well as the United States, drawing huge crowds at their concerts from its fan base. El Tri's songs cover a wide variety of subjects - many songs are written to reflect the personal experiences of founder Alex Lora, and others reflect more of the reality of the daily lives of average Mexicans.
