Release Notes:

One of the few contemporary bands to land a decidedly roots-rock song
on the charts with 2004's Grammy-winning "Heaven," Los Lonely Boys
solidified their status as youngsters with an established sound on
their first disc. On this highly anticipated studio followup, all
talk of the sophomore jinx dissipates with the opening soul-drenched
riff rocker "My Way." Although horns are added for extra drama, the
three Garza brothers nail this groove as Henry's Stevie Ray
Vaughan-fortified guitar powers one of the boys' most fiery
performances. Supporter and mentor Willie Nelson joins on the wah-wah
driven, Waylon Jennings-styled "Outlaws," as does the brothers'
musician father Enrique Sr. Tough midtempo ballads such as "Home" and
the very Santana-ish "I Never Met a Woman" follow in the footsteps of
"Heaven" as candidates for slow dance song of the year.

Anyone entranced by the Garzas' debut will be thrilled by this classy
followup that tightens some of the loose ends but displays additional
confidence resulting from two years of nearly nonstop road work. The
band spotlights its Tex-Mex roots on the accordion-driven "Texican
Style," where near-perfect vocal harmonies drive an irresistible
bluesy shuffle. Most encouraging is that Los Lonely Boys haven't
succumbed to commercial pressure since their surprise hit debut.
Rather, they have refined and organically expanded their approach,
and crafted another classy, committed, radio-friendly Americana gem
that meshes blues, Mexican, and soul with a spicy topping of
hot-sauce musicianship.
