About the Bands:

Little Joe y La Familia

Described as the "King of the Brown Sound," Little Joe Hernández of Little Joe y La Familia has been a trailblazer in Tejano music for more than five decades and is one of the most prominent figures in the industry.

Known for high-energy performances, the Temple-based group rose to prominence in the 1960s and 70s with chart-topping hits, such as “Las Nubes” and “Por Un Amor.” Fusing traditional Mexican music with elements of norteño, country, blues and rock, Little Joe Y La Familia delivers a timeless sound that resonates with fans of all ages and celebrates the rich heritage of Tejano music.

A five-time GRAMMY winner and National Heritage Fellowship award recipient, Little Joe has produced more than 70 albums and performed for audiences worldwide.

Shakey Graves

Hailing from Austin, Graves is the embodiment of raw talent and authentic artistry. With a genre-defying sound that blends folk, blues, roots rock and Americana, he has carved a unique and unmistakable niche in the music world with popular tunes like “Tomorrow” and “Dearly Departed.”

His 2011 debut album, "Roll the Bones," launched him into the spotlight, earning him high praise and a devoted fanbase. In 2015, he won Best Emerging Artist during the 2015 Americana Music Awards. Since then, Graves has continued to push boundaries and defy expectations with each new release.

His latest album, “Movie of the Week,” is no exception, featuring an innovative collection of songs and recordings presented in a cinematic, movie-soundtrack-style approach.
