More than three decades have passed since Los Lobos released their debut album, Just Another Band from East L.A. Highly recognized for their hit single "La Bamba", Los Lobos' most recently received a Grammy nomination for their album Tin Can Trust, the first release of a new collection of original material in four years.
Los Lonely Boys, known as the Texican rock'n'roll trio of brothers including Henry, JoJo and Ringo Garza, have achieved multi-platinum album sales, a Grammy Award for their monster hit "Heaven" and widespread acclaim from critics, fans and other musicians.
A prolific and influential musician, Alejandro Escovedo surfaced as a guitarist for The Nuns on San Francisco's no-holds-barred punk scene centered around the Mabuhay Gardens in North Beach; in the band Rank & File he helped unite the disparate worlds of punk and country in the 1980s; and after he moved back to Austin, the True Believers combined all manner of Americana music in a harbinger of what was to come in Alejandro's solo career which began in 1992 with the album Gravity.
