The Mariachi Heritage Foundation and the Auditorium Theatre of Roosevelt University present Grammy and three-time Latin Grammy Award-winner Lila Downs on May 6, 2015 at 7:30pm. Known for her innovative approach to music, the New York Times raves, “Lila Downs has made it her mission to fuse deep Mexican folklore with modern, Pan-American possibilities, sleek modern Mexican pop with a thrilling, chameleonic voice at its center. Ms. Downs makes border-hopping sound easy.” During her upcoming North American tour, Downs will perform music from her highly-anticipated new album “Balas y Chocolate (Bullets and Chocolate),” a heartfelt declaration to passionately fight for the preservation of one’s land and country. Beginning on February 27, tickets will be available online at AuditoriumTheatre.org, by calling (800) 982-ARTS (2787) or in-person at Auditorium Theatre’s Box Office (50 E. Congress Pkwy). Discounted tickets for groups of 10 or more are available at (312) 341-2357 or sales@auditoriumtheatre.org.
Pre-sale tickets are available starting February 17 through February 26 using the access code MHF2015.
