About this event
Mexican Slum Rats brings alternative-leaning indie rock to Slowdown in Omaha, with the venue and Ticketmaster listing confirming the show under the Music, Alternative, and Indie Rock categories. The Los Angeles-area band’s own materials describe a hard-to-pin-down sound that moves through emo-jazz fusion rock, jammy impulses, acoustic textures, and noise-drone edges.

What to expect
