One of the first and most prominent latin power pop driven bands to come out of Austin, "Boca Abajo" has captivated audiences with music that encompasses strong melodic written lyrics and guitar driven riffs influenced by the sounds of Soda Stereo, The Beatles and Green Day. Boca Abajo is known amongst fans and music lovers as one of the pioneers of Latin Alternative Rock in Austin. "Boca Abajo", the self-titled debut album embraces the evolution of this six-piece band made up of family members; Patrick, Lionel, Conrad, Roland, Joe and Peter. An ex-alum of the SXSW Music Conference, their participation in national tours for Latin Rock and Pop artists such as Mana, Sin Bandera, Bacilos, Ozomatli and Control Machete among others has gained them recognition on an international level.
