Bogotá's Nicolás y Los Fumadores built a following far beyond Colombia with sharp, emotional Spanish-language lyrics over a wide spread of rock influences, and this is their first show in the United States. It anchors Lincoln Center's Festival of Firsts, the annual run of debuts in the Rubenstein Atrium, and it costs nothing to get in. If you like Latin alternative rock or want to see a band before it plays bigger rooms, walk in.
