Call the baby sitter and get your best suit pressed....Lucero is coming back to Asheville on Saturday, June 20th! They're a band that doesn't have fans as much as they have diehards who come to every show and scream the words to every song from their "classic" albums like Tennessee and That Much Further West. They're road warriors who live in their tour van and have had their touring experiences chronicled in the Dreaming In America DVD.
To call Lucero Memphis' answer to Bruce Springsteen is not a stretch. It's just how it is. They're a band that has been tagged as "alt-country" and "punk country." They're a band that has written plenty of songs about girls and guitars, and about life, love, drinking, and life, love, and drinking while on the road.
Ultimately, Lucero live to rock and rock to live. No more. No less. Its really that simple. Check them out for yourselves... www.luceromusic.com. BONUS, Tim Barry, of Avail fame, will be opening the show in gritty style. Show time is 9pm, doors at 8pm. Tickets are $12 advance/$14 day of show. Get 'em while we still have 'em!
