San Antonio firecracker Doug Sahm cut country and R&B tunes in the early ’60s, but by 1964 he had formed the Sir Douglas Quintet. (Their British-sounding name intended to capitalize on Beatlemania.) They were the first to devote themselves to a true Tex-Mex fusion, complete with a combo organ taking the conjunto-style accordion parts and adding a g...
Mexican-American singer Little Joe was a contemporary of Sahm, working with the same set of influences, though Little Joe & The Latinaires tended to tackle one style at a time more often than mixing them all up at once like Sahm and company. One moment they’d be overflowing with Chicano soul, the next they’d be slipping into straight-up Tejano. But...
Domingo “Sam” Samudio, frontman for Sam the Sham & The Pharaohs, was the clown prince of Tex-Mex, opting for a good-time vibe and songs with semi-novelty appeal and sporting a big, campy turban. Leaning more toward the garage-rock side of the spectrum of styles under the Tex-Mex umbrella, the band broke through to the mainstream with their debut si...
As the organist in the Sir Douglas Quintet (and on many of Doug Sahm’s subsequent solo records), Augie Meyers was crucial to the creation of the Tex-Mex sound. His pumping, accordion-like riffs helped establish the template for the style. Starting in the early ’70s, when he wasn’t busy working with Sahm, Meyers was off making records of his own, wi...
Englishman Wes McGhee is living proof that the appeal of Tex-Mex reaches across bigger borders than the one separating Texas from Mexico. Splitting his time between Texas and the U.K., McGhee developed a sound influenced by Doug Sahm et alia but coming from more of an outlaw country-tinged singer-songwriter perspective. McGhee started out in the ’7...
In the late ’70s, the adaptability and timelessness of the Tex-Mex sound was underlined by the emergence of Joe “King” Carrasco & The Crowns, who gave the style a rocking, edgy but exuberant New Wave update, dubbing his style Nuevo Wavo, and earning a good deal of renown in the process. It may not be a coincidence that shortly after Joe and the Cro...
Starting out not in Texas but in San Diego, these guys were energized by the rise of New Wave as well. They formed in the ’80s when Southern California was kind to roots-rocking types running on raw energy (The Blasters, Los Lobos, etc.) The Pigs wove a number of other stylistic strands into their sound, but when they turned up the Tex-Mex, it came...
By the beginning of the ’90s, the world was ready for a Tex-Mex supergroup, and boy, did they get one. The tried-and-true team of Doug Sahm and Augie Meyers joined forces with Chicano country star Freddy Fender (who started out playing R&B in the late ’50s), and conjunto accordion hero Flaco Jimenez. They released their first album in 1990, seeing ...
