Los Lobos have announced a North American tour in celebration of the release of the 20th anniversary edition of their critically acclaimed album, Kiko, which will include a series of shows where the band performs the album in its entirety. The tour will also include several dates with Neil Young and Crazy Horse. See below for the full tour itinerary.
The Kiko 20th Anniversary Edition will be released August 21 in a newly remastered format featuring bonus material and demo versions of album tracks and live recordings. Also being released on the same date are a CD, a DVD and a 2-disc Blu-ray/CD set titled Kiko Live, which captures the band’s February 24, 2006 performance of the album at the House Of Blues in San Diego, CA and contains interviews with the band and others involved in the making of the studio album.
Starting in November, the band will be celebrating 40 years together. “There’s this thing that still happens, this musical thing,” says band member Louie Pérez. “But if you took everything away, even the music, you’d still end up with four guys who were friends and hung out and grew up in the same neighborhood. And you can’t take that friendship away from us.”
