ZERI

Zeri is a musical project created by composer and vocalist Edgar Ramirez of Mcallen. Using the name Zeri, Edgar began his career as a solo artist in 2004 while producing and composing for other artists. 

In 2007 Zeri officially becomes a band when Edgar hooks up with guitarist/producer Hector Arizpe. Together, the duo release their first album “Efectos Secundarios” , leading with the single “Bendicion”. The single is chosen as “iTunes Song of The Week” and goes on to achieve over 50k downloads in its first week. 

After working together for over a decade, Edgar and Hector have garnered various achievements as a band and as composers / producers. One of these achievements is a Latin Grammy for participation in “Tejano Album of the Year” for Grupo Solido with two compositions. 

AUSTIN MEADE

Meade is a child of the Millennium, yet his guitar style is descendant from the 70’s classic rock age with notes that writhe like exposed nerves. With songs that talk about corrupted love, cocaine, prison, church, and the hard living of the common working man, it’s rather surprising to learn that Meade nearly followed in his father’s footsteps as a church minister. It was his brief stint as a worship leader at his father’s church in Brehnam, Texas playing music to the congregation that put him on the path to music, and it was the countless rock concerts his fathers to him to while growing up that cultivated his ambition to be a music artist. 

A former drummer, Meade played in a cover band for years while earning his business degree at Texas A&M in College Station before he peeled back another layer of himself and found a songwriter dwelling there.

Now the frontman of his own band slinging guitar licks with expert precision, his music rolled out with two releases in 2014, his first EP “Long Ways To Go” followed by his first full-length album “Chief of The Sinners.” His next EP “Heartbreak Coming” came in 2016 with a couple of singles to  announce his commencement on the Texas Music Chart.

Now based in New Braunfels, Texas with a tour schedule stretching outside the Lone Star state, Meade takes his next perfect ride with his second full-length album “Waves”. 

MITCH BRADFORD

Mitch Bradford is a singer-songwriter from Brownsville, Texas.  He discovered music at a young age, emerging himself in the songs of Joni Mitchell, Neil Young and Jackson Brown. In 2016 he left his job in the tech world to pursue his passion for music and film full time.

Two years later Mitch hooks up with Grammy Award Winner producer Matt Ross-Spang to write and record his debut album. With a classic country-california feel, Mitch puts a modern twist on the Laurel Canyon inspired sounds of Eagles, Joni Mitchell and James Taylor.  

Perro Lunar

PERRO LUNAR

Perro Lunar is a Spanish-language Alternative Rock band from South Texas. With influences ranging from 60’s rock, 80’s spanish rock, and modern electro-indie, Perro Lunar presents a fresh and modern musical proposal. 

Knowledge of classical music by part of the Avalos brothers shapes the unique sound of Perro Lunar. Their first album, “Tiempo”, was released in July of 2019 and provides a complete and profound listening experience. It is now available on all major streaming platforms.

BOIZ

BOIZ is a band from Brownsville, Texas. Their sound is as diverse as its members, ranging from indie, to funk, rock, hip hop, trap, and has influences from video games and anime. However all that music is made with  having fun at the center of all of it.

With catchy riffs and melodies, and lyrics about hipsters, fashionistas, and anime girls, the only thing they take seriously it's putting on a good show. No matter what kind of day you're having, if it's a Boiz night out, you'll always have a good time.

COSMIC BROTHERS

This quintet from Matamoros just released their new track “Anima” along with an astonishing music video for the same track.

A very upbeat, psychedelic style of pop/rock captivates the listener and entrances them in a wave of post 60s grooves. Their sound makes Cosmic Brothers an emerging act to track in 2020.

CANNON THE DEALERS

Founded in 2014 , Cannon The Dealers quickly began to play many shows, writing songs and establishing their unique sound. Vocalist Nick Tamayo brings his alternative raspy vocals, and reggae, indie rock music influenced writing style.
