Album Notes

Born in Monclova Coahuila Mexico and raised on St. Paul, Minnesota's "Westside," a diverse, multicultural community, Javier Trejo embodies what it is to be Latino growing up in the Midwest. Singer, songwriter and guitarist for The Beads and now guitarist and co-vocalist for New Primitives, Javier has opened and played with some of the United States' finest acts including: The Neville Brothers, Widespread Panic, The Big Wu, Willie Waldman Project, Big Brother and the Holding Company, and Los Lobos.

Pulse of the Twin cities says "Guitar man and singer/songwriter Javier Trejo does vintage, dyed-in-the-wool San Francisco rock and is pretty damned good at it, ranging from sensual acoustic music to state-of-the-art ballsy fare, all of it enriched by a sinewy, Latin aesthetic."

With "a killer falsetto"** and excellent guitar playing, performances flow effortlessly between Latin, Rock-n-Roll, Reggae, Bossa, Dub, Soul,Bluegrass, Country, and English and Spanish lyrics. All this combined with excellent song writing Javier Trejo's music can only be described as one thing, Mexican/Americana at it's finest. .

"Javier, also Latino-American, plays guitar and has a killer falsetto that will have you searching for the female backup singer." **

A review of the Bob Marley Remembered shows last February says Javier has "Latin-pop phrasing in his singing and solid guitar playing."
