LOS LONELY BOYS COTTONFIELDS AND CROSSROADS
Wednesday, September 17, 2008, 9:30-11:00 p.m. ET
After a childhood of playing cantinas and honky tonks from Texas to Tennessee, Los Lonely Boys have rocked their way to the top of the American music industry, determined to fulfill their father’s long-held dream. This documentary feature film tells the story of three Mexican-American brothers from San Angelo, Texas, who create a unique sound that melds the core of the early San Angelo music scene of the 1950s and 60s into a signature style they call “Texican.”

LOS LONELY BOYS SET TO RELEASE THIRD STUDIO RECORD PRODUCED BY STEVE JORDAN. THE NEW CD IS ENTITLED FORGIVEN AND IS DUE OUT JULY 1, 2008.
PERFORMING AT TWO AUSTIN, TX, CHILDREN’S CHARITY BENEFITS MAY 24
Epic Records is proud to announce that the Grammy Award-winning Texican trio Los Lonely Boys is set to release its new record on July 1, 2008. Entitled, FORGIVEN, the record is the Garza brother’s (Henry – vocals/guitar; Jo Jo – vocals/bass; Ringo – vocals/drums) third studio effort and was produced by the Grammy Award-winning producer and acclaimed drummer Steve Jordan (Keith Richards, John Mayer, Herbie Hancock), engineered by Niko Bolas (Neil Young, KISS, Don Henley, Sting, Fiona Apple), Dave Natalie (Rolling Stones, Fleetwood Mac) and mixed by Manny Marroquin (Santana, Alicia Keys, Kanye West, T.I., Rihanna). It was recorded at East Side Stages in Austin, TX. The first single, “Staying with Me,” will be available digitally on May 6th and goes to AAA radio on May 12th.
Forgiven is the culmination of an incredibly rewarding recording process that sought to and succeeded in getting back to the roots of what makes Los Lonely Boys so special. Jordan decided that he didn’t want to put the band into a typical studio situation. Instead, understanding the impact of their live sound and presence he simulated the band’s on-stage setting on a sound stage, paying attention to every detail, going so far as to recreate their front-of-house setup. The difference in approach is palpable throughout the record.
While the approach changed, what is constant throughout Forgiven and Los Lonely Boys’ entire career is their crafted, nuance-filled song writing, strong musicianship and impeccable harmonies that they pull off with deceptive effortlessness. Their signature mix of conjunto, Tex-Mex, power-blues rock and breezy pop is as potent, and, most importantly, fun as ever.
On May 24, at 4pm in Austin’s Zilker Park, Los Lonely Boys are inviting 10 children from the Big Brothers Big Sisters Organization of Austin and 10 children from Sunshine Camp of Austin to a mentoring event. The 20 kids participating will receive an acoustic guitar and guitar lessons provided by First Act and get up close and personal with Los Lonely Boys after they perform a short acoustic set. Later that night, at 10:30pm at Saxon Pub, where the band got its start, they will be performing an exclusive, intimate set at a Music for Literacy benefit. Music for Literacy is a non-profit organization providing books for south Austin school kids this summer. 100% of ticket sales are going to Music for Literacy. All tickets were sold through Los Lonely Boys’ fanclub and are sold out.
Forgiven is the follow-up to 2006’s “Sacred” and 2003’s multi-platinum, Grammy-winning self-titled a
