Artist description Los Blancos ranges from the Lafayette Louisianna roots of rock n’ roll, to the deep side of blues, and back up again to butt-bumping New York funk. Adding a little sweet soul music, a bite of houndog on the slide, and a squeeze of accordion, and Los Blancos doesn't just cross the line between styles... We soak it in tequila and TORCH IT!!!
