.Thee Sinseers in San Jose

Thee Sinseers give us a lesson in regional music history, drawing their inspiration from the post-World War II meshing of Chicano and Black communities in East LA. They fuse a cornucopia of genres from that prosperous time and place—mariachi, boleros, R&B. With ample doo-wops, horns and band leader Joey Quiñones’ soulful falsetto, the band brings vintage Southern California into the present. As the good folks of NPR’s Tiny Desk report, their original songs evoke “memories of lowrider car shows and lazy Sunday afternoons.”
