Galveston Island, TX, May 22, 2013 --(PR.com)-- Acclaimed Latin Rock band Del Castillo will perform at Party on the Pier on Sat., July 20. Mitchell Historic Properties and the restaurants and attractions at Pier 21® present this new free, family-friendly gathering, which takes place on the third Saturday of the month from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. through October and features live music and entertainment including performances by award winning Austin musicians.
Del Castillo has won upwards of 18 awards for their eclectic blend of Flamenco, Rock, Latin, Blues, and World music. Their unique sound and intense instrumental skills have gained them recognition including SXSW/Austin Music “Album of the Year” Awards for their albums Vida and Brotherhood, “Band of the Year”, ASCAP’s “Best Independent Group of the Year”, and Austin Music Pundits “Best Live Act”.
Their lively sound has gained Del Castillo recognition by Rolling Stone magazine who call the band “tumbling brilliance on nylon-string classical guitars” with “eruptions of technique and taste that conjure images of Eddie Van Halen fronting early Santana (with an assist from the Gipsy Kings).”
The band has toured with a diverse group of musicians including Styx, Los Lonely Boys, Don Henley, and Willie Nelson. Del Castillo has appeared for television and media including special performances for Austin City Limits, Dan Rather Reports, and The George Lopez Show. They have also performed for a number of blockbuster movie soundtracks including “Once Upon a Time in Mexico”, “Sin City”, “GRINDHOUSE”, and “Kill Bill Vol. 2,” among others.
