The Grammy-winning band behind 'Bamboléo' and creators of flamenco, salsa, and pop fusion perfection known as The Gipsy Kings are coming to Cedar Rapids! Don’t miss your chance to see the award-winning hit-makers live as they take audiences back to the south of France with flamenco guitars and booming Spanish vocals.

Uniting the family Reyes and the family Baliardo, the band continues a tradition that has drawn famous fans such as Picasso, Cocteau, Dali and Chaplin. From playing on the streets of Cannes and the hedonistic heights of St. Tropez, breaking world music barriers as one of the rare groups to climb the US and World music charts. Featured in the likes of The Big Lebowski, Toy Story 3 and Glee, the band has embraced western classics by Bob Marley, the Doobie Brothers and The Eagles with globe-hopping grace, whilst also incorporating dramatic cues from Brazilian and Caribbean culture.

Now bringing the party back to the United States this summer, The Gipsy Kings will raise the roof with dance-ready furore, returning to their groundbreaking eponymous album and the nomadic spirit that has led them to their latest, Savor Flamenco – giving audiences the 'deep shout at the heart of our community'.

Tickets start at $55 and feature the option of general admission lawn or reserved seating. Tickets go on sale Friday, February 27 at 10am at the U.S. Cellular Center box office, by phone by calling 1-800-745-3000 and all Ticketmaster outlets.
