LOS ANGELES, CA - October 16 - After almost 3 months, Monte Negro ended their "Pasajeros" tour last week at the House of Blues in Anaheim, after performing 30 shows in the USA as special guests for Enanitos Verdes.

In addition, they will be sharing the stage in other concerts with Zoé, Babasónicos, Aterciopelados, and Plastilina Mosh, among others.
"Fugitives of Pleasure / Pasajeros"is
the most recent release by Monte Negro, under the watchful eye

Tone (Green Day / Santana). It continues to attract the attention originated by their successful album debut "Cicatrix" (Epic), receiving front page coverage in diverse publications throughout their relatively short career. The New York Daily News praised their unique EP, enhanced with deluxe packaging and bonus eclectic instrumental tracks, with 4 out of 5 stars, a rating that is only granted to outstanding albums.

Appointed by the New York Post as "The Hottest New Latin Music", and nominated as "Favorite American Latino Newcomer" by this year's American Latino Awards, Monte Negro, a Los Angeles-based band, has been building their reputation with excellent songs and performances that showcase Kinski (vocals), Jason (guitar), Rodax (bass), and Javier (drums). Their musical maturity, unmatched stage presence, and emanating energy is impossible to ignore when observing them live. Monte Negro is finally prepared to launch the next significant step in their career ... conquer the Aztec land.
"It's an honor for us to finally arrive in Mexico with our bilingual music proposal, which contains two totally opposite worlds, but who have always lived in a perfect symbiosis," said Kinski, who along with his brother Rodax and Javier, are of Mexican descent.
