About this concert
w/ Drake City and The Damn Long HairsAskultura is back out on the road for the ALL FALL DOWN TOUR, come celebrate the good times! More info at www.askultura.com***********Que es un 'Askultura'? (bio)************Askultura: a rumba + punk rock + ska band from the sunny shores of Miami, Florida comprised of 9 globally-sourced, handsome devils. These are Incans demigods aka Peruvians on horns and keys, lasagna-slammers aka Italians on guitars and vocals, a French frog on bass, hardline Colombian on congas and percussion, a masked luchador named El Pollo Electriko shredding lead guitar, a svelte Cuban on trumpet, a super-sized American Okie on washboard, and an Ohioan on drums. They roll around in your childhood memory: a full-size 40ft yellow school bus with an aching desire to tour 24/7/365/3.14/666. The show gets crazy and it's probably better than any show you've seen before. On June 12, 2014 they, the aforementioned Askultura, released our 3rd cd in 4.352 years (do the math), called I.N.F.E.R.N.O. and it's stacked with futbol hooligan songs, rephrasings of Aesops fables, and ska punk anthems for immigrants, zen buddhists, blues enthusiasts, and illuminated self-medicators.Explore the real-deal, professional website and their daily presence on all the various social media outlets that the Interwebs has to offer.Mission Statement: To spread the party gospel of energia positiva & symphonic rumba punk elements to all curves of the galaxy. To exercise the spirit of the streets on stage. To hang with good people in every town Askultura is lucky enough to pass through. To incite moments of brief rebellion while leaving a lasting aftertaste for change.

Askultura Biography
We been around 9 years. Zealous performers. Rumbón is a street dance party. Record and tour music for consciousness kin and rebels formulating plans.
The band rolled onto the beaches of Miami out of NY + the caribbean + europe in late 2009 and are partially at fault for this big rumba riot punk ska sound. We now live in Miami-Dade County, Colorado, and south side of France.
We think we play a mix of boom boom and whack-bag and would like to say that we dedicate these joyous gems to the benefit of all sentient beings, our own personal satisfactions, and party people globally.
