The Sextones from Reno Kick off CVAC Concert Series on Oct. 5th

The first concert in CVAC’s 2018-2019 Concert Series will feature music from the Sextones on Friday, October 5, 2018 at 7:00 pm at the CVIC Hall in Minden. The Sextones' live show is nothing short of electric showcasing their power-house vocal acrobatics and white-knuckle rhythm section. Mark Sexton’s greatest influence is Stevie Wonder, and he describes the Sextones sound as West Coast soul and funk. The Sextones are a family of music renegades known for viciously executed soul compositions and white-knuckle driving funk. Fronted by the charismatic and soulful vocalist Mark Sexton – The Sextones’ sound is a tip of the hat to the days of Tower of Power and Stevie Wonder while actively forging the path for a new generation of soul and funk. Based in the wild desert of Reno, NV, The Sextones continue to diligently craft their distinctive brand of soul with face-melting guitar parts, intricate bass-work, commanding drum rhythms, sticky Hammond B3 comping, brutally honest and heartfelt vocal acrobatics and a fearless and exciting stage performance.

Band members are: Mark Sexton, guitar/vocals, Alexander Korostinsky, bass/synth bass, Daniel Weiss, drums/percussion, and Ryan Taylor, keyboards/Synths. The 7:00 pm concert at the CVIC Hall in Minden, on October 5, featuring the Sextones will be an inspiring night of music you don’t want to miss! Doors open at 6:00pm.Tickets are $22 in advance; $26 at the door; and kids under 18 are free. Tickets may be purchased online at www.cvartscouncil.com, by phone at 775-782-8207, at the Copeland Cultural Arts Center, 1572 US Hwy 395, Minden, or at the Douglas County Community Center.

Hinojosa released her 17th album “West,” in June 2018. It is an album that includes a duet with another Texan, Michael Martin Murphey. “West” is yet another brilliant body of work displaying Hinojosa’s enchanting blend of folk, country, and pop while always paying homage to her Latino heritage. Her undeniable appeal has been embraced worldwide on stages where she has charmed audiences from The White House to Hamburg, Germany, where she made her home for 9 years before returning to Austin, Texas in 2013. Hinojosa has appeared as a featured guest on such programs as Austin City Limits, A Prairie Home Companion, and various NPR programs. She has collaborated with artists Joan Baez, Booker T. Jones, Flaco Jimenez, Pete Seeger, and Dwight Yoakam to name a few.
