Alejandro to play at Democratic National Convention

Posted about 1 year ago

According to record label EMI, Alejandro Escovedo will perform Tuesday night as part of the Democratic National Convention Committee's program featuring Senator Hillary Clinton, the evening's headline speaker.

Escovedo is scheduled to take the stage at 5:45 p.m. MST and perform People (We're Only Gonna Live So Long) from his recently-released album Real Animal. "These are unbalanced times, and great change is needed," Escovedo said in a press statement. "To be included in this celebration of the dignity and freedom of women and minorities is an honor."

Later in the week, Escovedo will play the Harley-Davidson 105th Anniversary Celebration in Milwaukee on Saturday; also on the bill is Bruce Springsteen. Escovedo's West Coast tour starts Sept. 8 in San Diego. More info at www.alejandroescovedo.com

    Excellent -- a case of the appetizer being better than the main course IMO.
