Molotov
$32 advance
$35 day of show
Molotov is a three-time Latin Grammy Award-winning Mexican rock and hip hop band formed in Mexico City on September 23, 1995. Their lyrics feature a mixture of Spanish and English, rapped and sung by all members of the group. Musically, Molotov blends heavy bass lines with heavy guitar riffs. Many songs, such as "Gimme Tha Power" and "Frijolero," are politically inspired, addressing issues such as disenfranchisement within Mexico and immigration in the United States. The band's lyrics are risqué, playful, and frequently aggressive. They recently returned from a three year absence and released their 6th album.

Chris Pierce is a soul singer. Chris Pierce is a song-craftsman. Chris Pierce is a gifted performer. With his second studio recording under his belt entitled “Walking on the Earth,” and over 350 live performances in the past two years, Chris Pierce is living by his own words, “all that matters is now”. Born and raised in Los Angeles, California, Chris has been performing in clubs, on television, and on concert tours since before he could drive. He has earned the notoriety of an L.A. underground music legend. Still a young man, Chris Pierce is often described as an old soul and his music has been compared to greats like Bill Withers, Al Green and Otis Redding, yet he has a voice that stands alone. He grew up on classic recordings, and believes in making albums that not only feel good as a whole but can also be broken down and be rediscovered again and again, one song at a time.
