Album Description

Finally! After three years, four different editions of their self-titled debut, a couple of live outings, a handful of singles, and the radio smash hit {&"Heaven,"} San Angelo, TX, wunderkinds {$Los Lonely Boys} drop {^Sacred}, their second studio album. The {$Garza} brothers -- {$Henry} (guitar), {$JoJo} (bass), and {$Ringo} (drums) -- up the ante on this slab; it's a big production number that includes additional keyboards, horns, and extra percussion muscle. Does it take away from the immediacy of their debut? Nope. This is not the ill-fated sophomore slump. {^Sacred} is, for the most part, an uptempo, rollicking, streetwise Texas {\rock} record with many surprises. The {$Garza} brothers' lyric writing is still developing, but the tightknit arrangements, popping grooves, and focused musicianship more than balance. The album's first single is {&"Diamonds,"} and true to corporate {\rock} standards, it's an utterly catchy, infectious little track, but it's far from the best thing here. {$Henry}'s blistering guitar offers a beautiful hook for the trio to sing off of; it's a simple, hooky midtempo love {\ballad}, played on stun, with two organs (played by {$Reese Wynans} and {$Mike Finnegan}) and producer {$John Porter} lending a second guitar. All mixed up, it creates a big swirling danceable {\pop} noise that will be instantly memorable to anyone who encounters it. That said, there are other cuts here that reveal the depths of the bandmembers' musical knowledge and ideas that they are capable of pulling off. Take {&"Roses"} as an example. {$Henry}'s {$Jimi Hendrix}-cum-{$Stevie Ray Vaughan}-cum-{$Albert Collins} guitar style flat out creates a groove for the trio to sing from -- its melody is sophisticated, entrancing, and layered through with B-3 fills. {$Ringo}'s polyrhythmic drum style and {$Carl Perazza}'s hand drums, the shimmering acoustic guitars, and the guitar solo make this the best driving track of 2006 so far. 
The deeper {\Latin} flavor of this record enters on {&"Oye Mamacita."} {$Henry}'s ear-popping {\funk} riff is complemented by the organ and a large rhythm section laying down the floor. It's a loose, orgiastic stinger where riffs, vocals, hooks, and rhythms collide and then slip into place, stacking on top of one another. The wah-wah guitar solo in this cut is to die for, and truth be told, it's these guys who are creating a new mainstream {\Tex-Mex}-driven {\Latin rock & roll} that even gringos can cut a rug to. {&"Texican Style"} (which is the best description of the music {$Los Lonely Boys} play) features the button accordion of {$Michael Guerra} right alongside {$Henry}'s guitar. {$The Texas Horns} contribute to a couple of cuts, including the anthemic opener, {&"My Way"} (no, not that one), and {&"Outlaws,"} which also showcases {$Willie Nelson} and {$Los Lonely Boys}' father, {$Enrique Garza, Sr.}, on vocals. The latter cut puts {$Henry} front and center with his wah-wahed, {&"Voodoo Chile"-esque} opening. Here is the one-two stomp of Texas {\outlaw country} music updated for the 21st century. {$The Texas Horns} play a funky, gritty {\mariachi} style introducing {$Enrique}'s swaggering verse, which introduces {$Nelson}. One might mistakenly perceive this as a nod to novelty, but it kicks ass. Period. The set closes with {&"Living My Life,"} a slippery, beautifully constructed {\Tex-Mex} {\son} in English. The three-part harmony is impeccable; the passion in the tune is balanced by its Sonoran desert feel. It's tempting to single out {$Henry} for his fluid, intuitive, and imaginative guitar playing, but that would be a mistake, as his brothers' rhythm section is simply one of the best in the business. They add imagination, grit, and tough grooves to everything they touch. Add the fact that they co-write their songs -- and they all sing -- and you have a unit that is an entire thing unto itself. {^Sacred} is an exciting, even wonderful second step for one of the truly unique bands on the scene. ~ Thom Jurek, All Music Guide

Album Description

{$Los Lonely Boys} are another entry into the {\rock & roll} family band tree. The {$Garza} brothers -- {$Henry}, {$Jojo}, and {$Ringo} (yes, that is his real name and he is the drummer) -- like {$the Everlys}, {$the Louvins}, {$the Davies} ({$Ray} and {$Dave}), {$the Youngs} ({$Malcolm} and {$Angus}), and many others, are forging a new sound from the various roots traditions in American music. Rooted in {\rock & roll} basics such as {$Chuck Berry}, {$the Beatles}, and {$Ritchie Valens} and the {\Latin} rhythm-inspired sounds created by the {$Santana} band, the brothers {$Garza}, who hail from San Angelo, TX, also employ the wondrously soulful and raw {\Tex-Mex} textures created by {$Doug Sahm} and {$Freddy Fender}. {$Los Lonely Boys}' self-titled debut on the {@Or} label was recorded at {$Willie Nelson}'s {~Pedernales Studio} in Austin and features {$Nelson} and {$Reese Wynans} guesting on guitar and keyboards, respectively, on {&"La Contestacion."} But there is plenty to the sound of {$los Lonely Boys}; their stew is one rich not only in history, but energy, songwriting craft, fine singing, and amazing playing -- check {$Henry}'s riffing, phrasing, and soloing on {&"Crazy Dreams"} and one might think the ghost of {$Stevie Ray Vaughan} is visiting {$Albert King}'s. {&"Dime Mi Amor,"} with its funky minor-key chord voicings dredged through a solid {\Latin rock} structure with shimmering {\son} rhythms and {\conjunto} backbeats, is stunning in its complexity, yet is as accessible as any {\pop} song. Driven by {$Henry}'s fluid and floral acoustic work and shot through with a soulful {\Tex-Mex} backbeat and vocal harmonies that touch upon the originality of {$Cesar Rosas}' and {$David Hidalgo}'s from {$los Lobos} as well as {$the Everlys}, {&"Hollywood"} is not merely a referencing of source material, but a genuine way of combining ideas to create a new sound, one that is not only inherently, but actually the {$Garza} brothers. As evidenced by songs like {&"Real Emotion,"} {&"More Than Love,"} {&"Onda,"} {&"Senorita,"} {&"La Contestacion,"} and {&"Velvet Sky,"} {$los Lonely Boys} reveal that they are tied to tradition but far from stuck to it; their songs are first-rate, crafted with nuance, grace, and grit and wash over the listener like a late-summer dance party under a full moon. This glorious, dark, and steamy diamond,. rooted in innocence and raw {\rock & roll} beauty, is most definitely a contender for debut album of the year. ~ Thom Jurek, All Music Guide
