Los
Lonely Boys is an American Grammy Award-winning
musical rock band
from San Angelo, Texas.
They play a style of music which they dub as Texican Rock n' Roll, combining elements of rock and roll,
blues, soul, country, and Tejano. The band consists of three brothers, Henry (guitar, vocals), Jojo (bass guitar, vocals), and Ringo (drums, vocals). They follow the tradition of their father, Ringo Garza Sr., who formed a band with his brothers called The Falcones. The Falcones played conjunto music in southern Texas during the 70s and 80s. To date, Los Lonely Boys has released three studio albums and a live album, all on the Epic Records label. Their debut single, "Heaven", was a Number One hit on the Billboard adult contemporary chart and reached the Top 40 on the Billboard Hot 100.

Del Castillo Band It
all began in late 2000 when Rick and Mark del Castillo decided to put together an album of
Latin/Flamenco-style songs for their parents and friends in their hometown of Brownsville,
Texas. The brothers, who had always played electric guitar in separate rock bands, had
never played together and for the first time ever they began collaborating on songs on
acoustic guitars. Brotherhood , the band’s third CD, was released in the Spring of 2006 and it was immediately acclaimed by the media across the board. Billboard Magazine said, “…Whether Del Castillo works in Spanish or English, it rocks righteously…They pull together Latin music’s romance and rock’s grit.” At SXSW 2007, Brotherhood won “Album of the Year” at the 2006/2007 Austin Music Awards. The band continues to tour throughout the country, thriving on performing live and building new audiences, and songwriting and recording are a priority during breaks in their tour schedule.
