New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Today,
Los Lonely Boys announce the release of their first new album in 11 years. Out August 2nd via BMG, Resurrection marks a return to form for the GRAMMY-winning, multi-platinum trio of Texican brothers, who have performed everywhere from the GRAMMYs telecast to the World Series to recent tours with The Who. Lead single "Wish You Would" conjures the group's classic sound, combining breezy guitar leads with hard-earned doses of wisdom.
"It's something we think people need to hear—especially the youth," says bassist/vocalist Jojo Garza, speaking on "Wish You Would" and Resurrection. "When we're young, we think we have it figured out. When you get older, you start to see things differently. Having kids of our own, we see their ambitions and ideas of what they want to be, so we want to be good parents. The message is, 'Be careful what you wish for. There could be a false light, and we don't want you to get hurt'."
After an extended break from recording,
Los Lonely Boys are making a triumphant return with Resurrection. Rejuvenated and more cosmically attuned than ever before, the album rekindles the sonic fire that bonds the
Los Lonely Boys brotherhood, while also paying respects to
Texas legends like Stevie Ray Vaughan and Freddy Fender, among others. The album was recorded at guitarist/vocalist Henry Garza's home studio in St. Angelo, TX, and El Paso's Sonic Ranch (Fiona Apple, Bon Iver, Snarky Puppy etc), and mixed live in
Chicago by Chris Gelin at Opus Audio Labs.
This year
Los Lonely Boys will also celebrate the 20th Anniversary of their self-titled debut, which reached double-platinum status and yielded the gold-certified, generational smash "Heaven," which earned them a GRAMMY Award for Best Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal and performance on the awards telecast. The brothers' follow-up Sacred bowed at #2 on the Billboard 200, paving the way for fan favorites Forgiven, Rockpango, and Revelation. Along the way,
Los Lonely Boys collaborated with legends such as Santana, Willie Nelson, and Dr. John.
Even as they've been away from the studio,
Los Lonely Boys have continued to tour tirelessly for decades, and this year they've hit the road again for an extensive, months-long run across the US. They will also perform on select shows alongside long time friends Los Lobos.
