 LONG LEAF PINE
by The Krayolas

The newest release is the complete package.  Featuring the post-modern corrido "Twelve Heads in a Bag" the group strolls through 15 tunes that take listeners on a drive on the wild side with "Chola Song" to the legendary voodoo queen on "Marie Laveau."   A big "add on" to this release are the soulful sound of the legendary West Side Horns.  Also check out the Tex-Mex sounds added by Michael Guerra on accordion and Max Baca on bajo sexto on "Twelve Heads in a Bag."

BEST RIFFS ONLY
by The Krayolas

From the liner notes:  “Thirty years ago, the Krayolas walked out of their daddy’s garage and into the legendary West Side studio, Zaz, to make their first 45 r.p.m. vinyl record.  They were only teenagers, but soon would make many more. “Best Riffs Only:  The Krayolas 1977-1988” compiles long unavailable, out-of-print indie vinyl singles and rarities for the first time.”  This extraordinary collection sums up why the Krayolas are and continue to own “The Tex-Mex Beatles” title.   And on top of that, this music will put a smile on your face.

LA CONQUISTADORA
by The Krayolas

Talk about a comeback!  When the Krayolas came out with this CD in 2008, they took the rock world by storm featuring a now legendary showcase at Austin's South by Southwest Music Conference.  Everyone from rock icons like Ben Fong-Torres and Dave Marsh to "kingmaker" Little Stevie Van Zandt who features it daily on his Underground Rock Station on Sirius/XM radio.  Here you've got top-notch songwriting with the jangling guitars and air-tight harmonies that won the group the "Tex-Mex Beatles" nickname.  And there's a major bonus - Augie Meyers, of Doug Sahm's original band, lends his hand on the Vox organ.
