Metalachi: The World's First and Only Heavy Metal Mariachi Band - On a hot summer night in Veracruz Mexico circa 1982, Consuela Espinoza stumbled out of her dilapidated shanty and into Rock N Roll history. What began as an innocent night of snorting horse tranquilzers in a hotel room with seven members of the village jai alai team went on to produce the greatest metal band to ever live. Unhampered by a steady regime of tequila and ill advised sumo lessons, nine months later five bastard children where born. Unable to care for her hungry offspring and concerned that motherhood would seriously interfere with her Tuesday night Karaoke league, Consuela hastily packed the babies into the saddlebags of a burro and sent her children off to America in search of a better life. Against all odds, 14 years later, and nearly dead from dehydration, the burro knelt down to drink from the stagnant waters of the Rio Grande just ouside of Juarez Mexico --mere yards from the U.S. border. With one fleeting burst of energy the brothers Espinoza cinco climbed from their leather restraints and scampered the vast reach of the river, collapsing onto the sweet amber hue of American soil. As if by destiny, lodged in the sand beneath their tanned faces was a record sleeve upon which were the words "PARANOID and BLACK SABBATH". For many years to follow, this definitive black metal album served not only as a teacher and a mentor..but also as a friend. From these bleak and humble begins grew the seed that would eventually be the band we know today. Often referred to as the greatest heavy metal band to ever live..always referred to as...METALACHI!
Also featuring The TomorrowMen, an S.F. Bay Area veteran surfy pop instrumental band, with all 4 musicians deeply rooted in the local scene. This veteran band of 10 years have played countless shows around the Bay Area, as well as up and down the west coast from San Diego to Seattle. Most notably, they toured all across Italy in 2012, headlining the worlds biggest surf music festival - The Surfer Joe Summer Festival in Livorno. While on first listen their music comes off as energetic, catchy and full of fun hooks, the repeated listener is rewarded by their eclectic approach to writing and arranging their own songs, ultimately stretching the boundaries of the genre. Youll hear elements of punk rock, prog, power pop, psychedelic, sunshine pop, spy, fuzz, classical, soundtrack, and they even have a video of their cover of a hit Punjabi song - Tunak Tunak Tun. Currently The Tmen are promoting their latest album - Futourism (On Double Crown records - check it out on Bandcamp), which has been receiving rave reviews. In addition to continuing to play local shows regularly, theyre planning to tour all across Europe in Summer of 2017.
