Tobin Center for the Performing Arts

Black Box Live at The Tobin Center presents an intimate evening of masterful songwriting and storytelling, featuring Lisa Morales and special guests David Hidalgo (of Los Lobos) and John Doe (of X), two pioneering icons of the 70's/80's Southern California music scene. This uniquely up-close setting invites audiences to hear the music in its purest form, stripped down, deeply personal, and powerfully resonant.
Lisa Morales&nbsp;brings her genre-blending sound rooted in Mexican heritage, soul, folk, blues, and Americana. A fixture of the Texas music scene, she first gained recognition as one-half of the beloved duo Sisters Morales, a staple across the Southwest from the ’80s through the early 2000s. Praised by&nbsp;Rolling Stone&nbsp;as “one of the most multifaceted artists to watch,” Morales continues to craft songs rich with emotion and authenticity.
David Hidalgo, best known as a founding member of Los Lobos, brings a deeply expressive, genre-spanning sound shaped by rock, folk, and Mexican-American influences. A celebrated multi-instrumentalist, Hidalgo has also collaborated with legendary artists including&nbsp;Bob Dylan,&nbsp;Tom Waits,&nbsp;Bonnie Raitt, and&nbsp;Dolly Parton, earning a reputation as one of music's most respected collaborators.
John Doe, co-founder of X, is celebrated for his raw, narrative-driven songwriting and decades-spanning influence as both a solo artist and collaborator. Blending punk roots with Americana and folk traditions, his songs are known for their vivid characters, emotional honesty, and enduring impact.
Together, these acclaimed artists create an unforgettable night of songs and stories, shared just feet away.<a href="https://eventvesta.com/events/153597/t/tickets" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">View Tickets</a> &amp; More info

Actress and comedian Janeane Garofalo has been an American institution since she burst on the scene in 1992.
Janeane has had many memorable and critically acclaimed roles in films such as "The Truth About Cats and Dogs," “Wet Hot American Summer,” “Ratatouille,” "Steal This Movie," "Reality Bites," "Romy and Michelle's High School Reunion," "Mystery Men," “The Ten” and "The Cable Guy". Janeane also co-authored the bestseller "Feel This Book," with Ben Stiller.
Janeane was a cast member of the Emmy Award-winning Ben Stiller Show and played the role of Paula, the acerbic talent booker, on "The Larry Sanders Show," for which she received an Emmy nomination. During the fall of '94, she joined the cast of "Saturday Night Live." Some of Janeane's other television work includes two specials for HBO, FOX’s “24,” “Mad About You," and the final season of NBC's "The West Wing," where she played Democratic campaign strategist Louise Thornton.
In addition to acting in film and television, Janeane is an outspoken activist, spoken word performer and stand-up comedy entertainer known and respected around the world. She was instrumental in the successful launching of the first liberal radio network, Air America Radio, where she hosted her own talk show, "The Majority Report."
