Audio Mixer: Andy Johns. Before launching an acoustic tour in late 2009, Los Lonely Boys found time to return to the studio and record 1969, a short, sweet homage to one of the most pivotal years in rock & roll. The bandmates cover material by the Beatles, Santana, the Doors, Buddy Holly, and Tony Joe White, and they do so with clean, polished execution. The Garza brothers are all comfortable with this genre, having grown up in a musical household filled with classic rock and Latin rhythms. Accordingly, 1969 draws a clear link between the band's studio albums and the material that inspired it.
Los Lonely Boys--three Mexican-American brothers born and raised in Texas--brought the concept of Tex-Mex music into the 21st century. Raised on the sounds of Texas rock, blues, and country, the virtuoso family band is also heavily indebted to both Willie Nelson (an early champion) and their father, Ringo Garza Sr., leader of the famed norteno act the Falcones. Los Lonely Boys' amiable mix of fiery guitar rock and smooth pop melodies earned them a Grammy in 2005. The trio released its sophomore album, SACRED, in 2006.
