LOS ANGELES (CelebrityAccess MediaWire) — Grammy Award winning roots-rockers Los Lobos has joined the growing list of artists who are boycotting Arizona and they have to canceled their scheduled performance at The Talking Stick Resort on June 10th, 2010. The band has made this decision based on the Arizona's passage of a controversial immigration crackdown.
Through their management, Los Lobos issued the following statement: “We support the boycott of Arizona. The new law will inevitably lead to unfair racial profiling and possible abuse of people who just happen to look Latino. As a result, in good conscience, we could not see ourselves performing in Arizona. We regret the inconvenience this may have caused the Salt River Pima Maricopa Indian Community, Casino Arizona, Talking Stick Resort and our fans, but we feel strongly that it is the right thing to do.”
The members of Los Lobos are Steve Berlin, David Hidalgo, Conrad Lozano, Cesar Rosas and Louie Perez. – CelebrityAccess Staff Writers
