New York, NY (Top40 Charts) One of the most important and popular bands of its genre in Mexico, DLD announced their U.S. tour with 4 confirmed dates in
Texas and an additional 3 in California, starting on May 24 in Houston. The group will make their debut at the Neon Desert
Music Festival in El Paso, one of the few festivals that combines music superstars both in English and Spanish, that include artists Hardwell, Foster The People, J Balvin,
Alesso and Nelly, among others. The tour concludes on June 1st in San Francisco, California at the Independent.
There are only a few bands that can tell the story of constant and rising success- and DLD is one of them. The band has 17 years of career including: 6 studio albums, two Latin Grammy nominations, two Telehit Awards, Gold Records for their sales, and sold out shows in outstanding venues like Palacio de Los Deportes, the Auditorio Nacional, Teatro Metropólitan, Vive Cuervo Salón and the Lunario, in addition to their highlighted performances in the most important festivals in the continent such as the Vive
Latino in 6 different editions and Rock al Parque in Colombia, among others.
Each album by the band has made them grow successfully and steadily. Their debut album entitled "Dildo" (2003), which was DLD's original name, was very successful with the first 4 singles, and by their second album "Modjo" (2005), the group was already traveling to USA on their first tour of 14 dates. "
Ventura" (2007) managed to reach the top radio spots throughout the country, including being awarded as Best Rock Album at Ritmoson Latino.
The fourth release, of the band originally from Mexico, entitled "Por Encima" (2009) reached #1 in national sales, with which DLD received the award as Best Rock Band by Telehit TV. Their fifth production, "Primario" (2012) and already signed with Sony Music, reached in a short time the Gold Record and obtained two Latin Grammy nominations in the categories "Best Pop/Rock Album" and "Best Rock Song" with the single "Todo Cuenta". On their official presentation, DLD performed a sold out concert at the famous Auditorio Nacional of Mexico City.
DLD's sixth album "Futura" (2015) was marked in the group's history by a successful sold out show of 26,000 tickets in the emblematic Palacio de los Deportes, where the special edition of "Futura CD+DVD" was recorded. "Futura CD+DVD" remains the bestselling rock album in Mexico.
Formed by the unmistakable voice of Francisco Familiar, Edgar Hansen on bass and Erik Neville on the guitar, DLD began 2017 with two performances in the Auditorio Nacional in Mexico City, reassuring their imminent consolidation as one of the most important Rock bands of the moment.
