    <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: verdana, arial, sans-serif, helvetica; font-size: 11px; line-height: 13px;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: normal; -webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 2px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 2px;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; -webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 0px; color: #333333;&quot;&gt;Come on out to The Copa on November 14th to experience the Latin fusion that is El Tule. There will be door prizes and giveaways, so come early for a better chance to win!&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Be one of the first to experience El Tule for what it is; a mind-melting sound that'll take you out of Downtown Austin and into a new experience of cumbia, Afro-Cuban, Rock, Merengue, Salsa, and Reggae mixed into one!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;From El Tule's MySpace Bio:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For six years El Tule (el TOO-lay) has been honing its unique sound combining influences of Cumbia, Afro-Cuban, Rock, Merengue, Salsa and Reggae. The music is influenced by art, history and culture often focusing on legends and tales of the mystical. Fan favorites include El Chupacabra, an eerie tale of the legendary goat sucker, La Ruta Maya, a pounding tribute to the famed Mayan Route and Media Noche, an ode to the dream like hours between night and daybreak. The ever evolving sound is a natural progression brought forth by different backgrounds, experiences and influences. While adhering to the bands original goal, the sound has taken its own course. The sound...&quot;El sonido&quot; that El Tule brings to each performance naturally transcends all cultural and social backgrounds. Simple, El Tule is for those who love to dance, feel good and enjoy the positive expression of music.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Full length recording &quot;Volumen 1&quot; available at Waterloo Records, Cheapos, Bob Bullock Museum,CD Fuse.com, CD Baby.com, Barnes and Noble and I Tunes. Volumen II will be available November 14, 2009 in Austin, Texas and worldwide!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Por los &amp;uacute;ltimos seis a&amp;ntilde;os, El Tule ha venido perfilando su sonido que es una combinaci&amp;oacute;n de Cumbia, Latin Jazz, Afro Cubano, Rock, Merengue, Salsa y Raggae. La m&amp;uacute;sica ha sido influenciada por el arte, la historia, y la cultura; enfocando leyendas, tradiciones y lo m&amp;iacute;stico. Entre los favoritos de los &amp;ldquo;fans&amp;rdquo; est&amp;aacute;n: &amp;ldquo;El Chupacabra,&amp;rdquo; una espeluznante interpretaci&amp;oacute;n de un animal que le chupa sangre de las cabras o corderos. &amp;ldquo;La Ruta Maya&amp;rdquo; donde se otorga tributo al famoso camino de los Mayas, y Media Noche, una eleg&amp;iacute;a a los sue&amp;ntilde;os evocados entre las horas de la media noche y la aurora. Los Sonidos musicales est&amp;aacute;n constantemente en una progresi&amp;oacute;n que nos transportan a recuerdos, experiencias e influencias; Siempre paralelo a la meta principal del grupo, la m&amp;uacute;sica adquiere su propia dimension y en forma natural trasciende los niveles culturales y sociales. Dicho simplemente , El Tule est&amp;aacute; para aquellos que les gusta el baile, sienten y disfrutan todo lo que es positivo en lo que se expresa con la m&amp;uacute;sica.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El disco &quot;Volumen 1&quot; se puede encontrar en Waterloo Records, Cheapo's, El Museo Bob Bullock, CD Fuse.com, CD Baby.com, Barnes and Noble y en I Tunes. Volumen II sera disponible Noviembre 14, 2009 en Austin, Tejas y por todo el mundo!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>
