About this event
This is a Tequila fuelled Tex Mex party night, as The Apex becomes the perfect cantina setting for a great night's rocking with the cactus sharp, tequila filled, stetson wearing magnificent seven, Los Pacaminos!
Los Pacaminos must be the first Tex-Mex band to have formed in the UK. Growing from an idea put forward by solo artist Paul Young, the band was formed to appease Paul’s desire to be once again a part of a band a la the Q-Tips, pick up a guitar again, and not be the centre of attention.
Although initially setting out only to play the Tex-Mex style they’d previously heard by artists Ry Cooder and the Texas Tornados, a lot of other border music has crept in to the mix over the 28 years they have played together.
Joining Paul in the band are Jamie Moses, Drew Barfield, Melvin Duffy, Stevie Greetham, Mark Pinder and Steve “Woody” Oakman. Between them have played with the likes of Queen, The Pretenders, Tom Jones, Joan Armatrading, Ray Davies, The Waterboys, and Alison Moyet.
