Lunes is a collective of artists whose music is inspired by the Chicano lifestyle. Genres from soul and rock to cumbia and reggaton are fused to create a unique blend of timeless music, reminiscent of multiple generations and cities.
Bolero Jonze
Bolero Jonze is the brainchild of singer/songwriter Brian López (Calexico, XIXA). Based in Tucson, the psychedelic bolero/lounge trio consists of López (vocals, guitar), Miguel Melgoza (Latin percussion, drums, vocals), and Ryan Alfred (upright bass, vocals), playing a steady diet of originals and ’80s new wave covers.
