Lucero — Belly Up Tavern in Solana Beach, California
Memphis based Lucero brought their punk influenced, alt-country, Americana sound to Solana Beach, California recently where they played to a sold-out crowd at the world-famous Belly Up Tavern. The band is on tour promoting their tenth studio album, When You Found Me.
They opened with “Texas and Tennessee” from the EP with the same name. They followed up with another “Everything has Changed” and a song written about Nichol’s grandfather, a WWII vet, and his great-grandfather, a WWI vet, called Coffin Nails.
Then the band began to rock! Nichols switched from an acoustic to electric guitar and they played “Among the Ghosts.”
