Los Lobos @ SLO Mission De Tolosa

May 27, 2016 @ 6:00 pm

Multiple Grammy award winning Chicano rock/ Latin rock band, Los Lobos is an American band originally from East Lost Angeles, California.

High school mates David Hidalgo (vocalist/guitarist) and Louie Perez (drummer) bonded over their love for music, and later recruited Cesar Rosas (vocalist/ guitarist) and Conrad Lozano (vocalist/bassist) to join them in a band in 1973, originally calling themselves Los Lobos del Este. Over a span of four months in 1977, the band was able to record their first album, “Los Lobos Del Este De Los Angeles,” and it was mostly recordings of music spanning from free-form jazz, to Top 40, to parody songs. However, they were not quite satisfied with what they were playing so they started to experiment with traditional Mexican music, and later added elements of rock to the sound.
