About this concert
Tijuana Cartel - The Beautiful Nonsense Machine Tour
In a season saturated with cookie-cutter beats and recycled rhythms, Tijuana Cartel's 'Ish and The Beautiful Nonsense Machine' emerges as a breath of fresh, psychedelic air. The new release is a trippy, genre-defying opus that melds organic house and tech with a kaleidoscope of sonic textures.
Tijuana Cartel, known for their fearless exploration of sound, delivers an E.P that dances on the edge of reality and fantasy. 'Ish and The Beautiful Nonsense Machine' is a labyrinth of musical experimentation, where classical and flamenco guitar riffs intertwine with pulsating electronic beats, creating a hypnotic tapestry that's as unpredictable as it is captivating.
This latest project builds on the band's previous triumphs, including the acclaimed ‘The Epic of Ish’, but ventures further into the unknown. Each track is a journey, inviting listeners to lose themselves in a swirl of vibrant melodies and intricate rhythms.

Tijuana Cartel Biography
"Tijuana Cartel give a delectable dose of hazily psychedelic escapism on new album ‘Acid Pony’." 9/10 Backseat Mafia
“… like a trip to the moon. Watching them perform is a whole-body experience that transports you. Paul’s skill on the guitar is unparalleled and time seems to slow as you watch him create art through his instrument.” Katelyn Rew, The Au Review
Finding their feet in the 1990s underground venues of the Gold Coast, Tijuana Cartel have honed their live set on some of Australia’s biggest stages dishing up an east meets west wonderland for those seeking sensory overload, euphoria, fat beats and heavy, bass-fuelled electronica. Tijuana Cartel’s sound is high-energy, guitar-driven, world music for indie kids.
The band has also been a familiar face on the international festival circuit, playing stages across Europe and the USA as well as Australia's most loved events including Peats Ridge, Rainbow Serpent, Wave Rock, Splendour In The Grass, Byron Bay Bluesfest, Woodford, Falls Festival and many more.
Creating an electronic beats tapestry that will cut through to your very soul, Tijuana Cartel is the perfect accompaniment to the rich tapestry of offerings at any festival across the globe.
“There's really no one else doing their mix of eastern mysticism, world flavours and cutting-edge dance beats, certainly with as much flair.” Andrew Drever (Sydney Morning Herald)
