The Texas Tornados
A reunion and celebration of the ultimate Tex-Mex supergroup, The Texas Tornados include of some of the genre's most legendary figures: Augie Meyers ( Sir Douglas Quintet), and accordion virtuoso Flaco Jimenez, with Shawn Sahm on guitar/vocals. The group's infectious, party-ready sound blends country, early rock & roll, Mexican folk music, R&B, and blues.
"...you turn to [the Tornados] for fun, uptempo party music and brassy, sock hop-style slow dance numbers with a bilingual flair, with generous helpings of wily humor, organ, and accordion along the way." -Jeff Giles, Pop Dose
