Los Lonely Boys

I'm never an endorser of new music but I just bought these guys self-titled debut and it's really good. Didn't know that the song "Heaven" was doing well on the radio until today.

It's like a cross between the late great Stevie Ray Vaughn, Santana and Los Lobos (even though they credit Ritchie Valens). Melodic, Strat guitar and amazing musicanship with really making a sound of their own.

I just bought tickets because I hope they're this good live.

Anyone else see them or heard the disc?

I've heard a lot of the songs. Good stuff.

I LOVE Heaven and the song about Hollywood.

Finally, someone else has heard of them. My favorite 2 tunes are Sinorita and Crazy Dream.

My wife made me buy the CD for the tune Heaven.

From what i've been told, the CD doesn't give an accurate representation of their live show.
They're supposed to be very good showman.

Cool -- i've only heard 4 or 5 songs. Some I like, some not so much because they're a too slow. I imagine the energy of a live show would bump it up.

They are 3 brothers that grew-up with music and while some songs are love songs (slower) they seem to be...REAL.

I think that's what's missing from current music, it all just sounds so fake or produced to go along with an image.

This picture doesn't remind me of guys who will be out selling a product anytime soon, who knows, I'm running off at the mouth here.
