Os Mutantes To Play More US Gigs

Brazilian psych-rockers Os Mutantes (The Mutants) will play on US soil again this summer. The recently reunited trio, brothers Arnaldo (bass, keyboards) and Sergio (guitar) Baptista and singer Zelia Duncan (who replaced original vocalist Rita Lee), toured last summer and will hit four major US cities this summer, making for only their second trip to the U.S. since forming in the 60’s. It would have been Os Mutantes third trip if they hadn’t turned down Kurt Cobain’s offer to reunite and play with Nirvana in 1993.Os Mutantes US tour dates:7/11: Chicago, IL, Metro7/13: Los Angeles, CA, El Rey Theatre7/15: San Francisco, CA, Stern Grove Festival7/17: New York, NY, Lincoln center Festival7/21: Benicassim, SPAIN, Festival International de Benicassim
