Today, international punk band Gogol Bordello announces their West Coast Tour this May, kicking off in San Diego on May 18 hitting Bottlerock Festival and Punk Rock Bowling andamp; Music Festival on the way. Tickets are on sale this Friday, March 1.
Since the band’s genesis in the Lower East Side punk-rock scene of 1999, Gogol Bordello has been riling up audiences with an inimitable patchwork of raucous punk and Eastern European Gypsy-swing. Latest album Solidaritine takes them back to hardcore roots with a renewed sense of urgency, as Hütz explains: “Solidaritine is the substance that unlocks our empathy and our full human potential…May this be your punky uplift for our packed with troubled times.”
