Overview
Mexico's annual Cinco De Mayo fiesta is one of the world's most famous cultural celebrations, but unless you're one lucky human you likely won't find flights in time to experience the real thing. Fortunately, there's a way to get amongst the festivities right here in Melbourne. And what's more, it's free.
That's thanks to Rolling Stone AU/NZ and Cholula, a household name in hot sauce. Together, the two are throwing Cinco Sounds: a one-off Cinco De Mayo party taking over Yarraville's Hotel Mexico this Saturday, May 3.
Headlining the event are Aussie indie-electro pop duo Client Liaison, Triple J Unearthed finalist Lotte Gallagher, and local Melbourne mariachi band Queen of Hearts. This is a big combination for several reasons: for one, it's among Client Liaison's first performances of the year after their tour hiatus, so they'll be rip-roaring back into performing and bringing all the energy their fans have been missing.
They're supported by some other stars in their own right. Lotte Gallagher is regarded as one of Australia's best up-and-coming alt-rock artists and Queen of Hearts' all-female mariachi lineup brings a touch of authenticity with music that's as much about storytelling as it is soundtracking.
No Cinco De Mayo bash is focused solely on music, though. Every party needs great food, and that's where Cholula comes in. Rolling Stone AU/NZ and Cholula will deliver the goods with a spicy mix of tacos, margaritas, top-shelf tequila and mezcal throughout the night. With Cholula's authentic hot sauce, spicy taco seasoning and tasty salsa at the heart, you'll be able to sample special dishes that pay homage to each Cinco Sounds artist. Plus, you can wrap your hands around exclusive Cinco de Mayo cocktails with your Cholula Mexican meal.
