The essence of Forgiven, the gripping third album by Texas trio Los Lonely Boys? âFamilia! Thatâs what I think it represents. Three brothers. True American spirit â" or Texican spirit.â
Itâs as simple as that, says guitarist Henry Garza of the artistic and emotional breakthrough achieved by him and his siblings, bass player Jojo and drummer Ringo Jr. From the bluesy groove of the opening song âHeart Wonât Tell a Lieâ through the yearning plea of the title song, the heartfelt faith of âLove Donât Care About Meâ and a rollicking version of the Steve Winwood/Spencer Davis Group chestnut âIâm a Man,â
Los Lonely Boys has fully realized the potential shown as its first two studio albums, the multi-platinum 2003 debut Los Lonely Boys and 2006âs Sacred (a No. 2 arrival on the Billboard albums chart), made the Texas trio one of the most beloved and acclaimed new arrivals in rock. Each of the three reaches new levels in their playing and singing, Henry and Jojo alternating lead duties and all three joining in both the group musical dynamics and vocal harmonies that can only come with genetic bonds. And there are some new turns as well, including Ringoâs recording debut as a lead singer on the song âSuperman.â Powered by passion and true brotherly love, Forgiven is in every note a rock ânâ roll classic.
