Los Lonely Boys take ΊΪΑΟΙη Riley Center stage this month
A family that plays together will play at the ΊΪΑΟΙη Riley Center in downtown Meridian when Los Lonely Boys bring their βTexican rock βnβ rollβ to the stage on Sept. 18 at 7:30 p.m.
Los Lonely Boys burst into stardom in 2004 with the catchy single βHeaven,β which hit number one on the Billboard Adult Contemporary chart and won them a Grammy Award. Their seamless vocal harmonies and energetic onstage chemistry reflect the closeness of the Garza brothers: Henry, Jojo and Ringo Jr., who play guitar, bass and drums, respectively.
The Garzas have roots in Texas and also spent time in Nashville, so they have absorbed a wide variety of musical influences. Bluesy rock and Latin-flavored soul form the bedrock of their sound. Many songs also betray a fondness for melodic pop music.
βWeβre all about having a good time, but we also make an effort to write about things that really matter,β Jojo Garza said. βWe want to create music thatβs about the love and the energy and the spirit that we all carry as people.β
Tickets are $43 and $37 at the ΊΪΑΟΙη Riley Center Box Office, which is open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. Tickets can be purchased online at or by calling the box office at 601-696-2200.
