Is this album intended to be an homage to Tejano music?
It is actually unintentional. We live in beautiful San Antonio. We hear Tejano, conjunto, and all kinds of music around us and I think some of it secretly made its way into the new songs. You’ve collaborated with some legendary names – Joan Jett, for example. Was it at all intimidating working with someone like her, or do you relate strictly as musicians. What was the most difficult thing about bringing someone else into your trio, even for one song? And the most rewarding? With Joan, it is a mix of both. We are a little intimidated, but mostly, it is working with another musician who has the experience. It really wasn’t difficult working with different producers. We started the foundation with Gabe Gonzales in the studio. It was great to start with someone who is not just talented, but so easy to work with. With Joan and Kenny Laguna, same thing. Greg Collins, was the new guy to us. If anything, we came out of the experience with more knowledge and would definitely work with him again
