Details are being finalized for a regular "Mambo Night" for Roxy and her Chucos at the new and beautiful First and Hope Supper Club in downtown. It's going to be a blast...Stay tuned for more info to come soon!
Roxy is enjoying playing with several different configurations of her band:
Roxy and her Chucos Suaves - "Latin Swing" - a swing band playing swing with a Latin twist - a 7-9 piece band complete with horns, or a smaller 2-4 piece more laid back mix of swing, standards, and ballads.
Roxy Especial - Introspective, yet Funky mix of original music with Latin and pop flavors - a 5-8 piece band.
Popiachi - An un-tradiitonal "mariachi" group playing pop,rock tunes in the soulful mariachi style of Mexico -also mixing it up with some more traditional mariachi favorites - 3 -5 piece band
Roxy, her husband Jamieson, and best friend Nate LaPointe have just finished recording three of their "Popiachi" songs - pop/rock tunes done in a Mariachi style. Check out the music section to hear a cumbia version of "Sweet Child of Mine" - it's pretty fun....more to come!
Roxy and Jamieson are very excited to have written the music for a national Honda holiday spot! Jamo's on piano as well, and he created the arrangement (Roxy came up with the jingle bells at the end!) and we recorded the whole thing at our studio at Luna Records.
