May 31, 2011 - PRLog -- Salinas, California – Revolucion Rokkera, a massive Rock en Español music festival, has announced its lineup.  Featuring DOPAMINA, MOLOTOV, FOBIA and the legendary EL TRI.

Revolucion Rokkera is the brain child of maverick promoter Abraham Ramirez. “Revolucion Rokkera is more than a great summer festival.  It was created to bring music education to local elementary schools.  Music has the power to transform and educate.  We look forward to bringing these great bands to Salinas and at the same time bring effective programs to our local schools.” Said the award-winning producer about the “Latin Woodstock.”

EL TRI: Trailblazing, gold record super stars EL TRI are considered one of the founding fathers of the Rock en Español genre. Fronted by Alex Lora, it is a blues/hard rock band from Mexico City. Since 1968 El Tri has paved the way to other acts like Caifanes and Mana.  Their legions of fans transcend generations and are considered the Latin version of The Rolling Stones.  

FOBIA evolved from the Rock en Español scene in Mexico in the late 80’s and 90’s. Their hit “El Microbito” was censored due to its explicit lyrics, fact that help the band reach super star status.  They have worked with stars the likes of Saul Hernandez (Caifanes, Jaguares) and Alejandra Guzman.

MOLOTOV: Multi-Grammy winning recording artists MOLOTOV are considered one of the most original acts in the Rock en Español scene.  Lyrics feature a mixture of Spanish and English rapped and sung by all members of the group, blending heavy bass lines with powerful guitar riffs.  Some of their material is politically inspired addressing immigration issues and the border patrol.  

DOPAMINA: Multi Grammy- winning artist Cesar “El Vampiro” Lopez is one of the best known and most influential rock guitarists of our time.  Currently he is the lead guitarist for the Mexican band Jaguares and is a former member of other major bands in Latin America including Maná and Azul Violeta. Vampiro joins forces with Victor Monroy lead singer and composer from PASTILLA considered a pioneer in the alternative movement in Los Angeles to form DOPAMINA his highly anticipated, first solo project.

Revolucion Rokkera 2011 is brought to you by R&R Pro, Seymour Duncan, Elyxir Distributors, Univision and LATV.
