ABOUT THE ARTIST
Little Joe y La Familia
Described as the “King of the Brown Sound,” Little Joe—Joe DeLeon Hernández—has helped pioneer Tejano music, a mix of traditional Norteño, country, blues, and rock styles, and has become one of the most prominent figures in the tradition today. In his earlier years, Hernández found influences in the music of Beta Villa, the originator of orquesta Tejana that generally features trumpets and saxophones. As a recipient of the Texas NARAS Governor’s Award and Texas State Artist of the Year, he has entertained audiences around the world for more than 65 years with 70 albums and countless shows. Through his music, which features the struggle of the less fortunate, he supports the United Farm Workers, Farm Aid, and Diabetes Educational Campaign Project. His song Las Nubes was adopted by the United Farm Workers as their official marching song.
Nominated 11 times, Hernández has received five Grammy Awards: 1991 Best Mexican American album, Diez y Seis de Septiembre; 2005 Best Tejano album, Chicanisimo; 2007 Best Tejano album, Before The Next Teardrop Falls; 2010 Best Tejano album (and a Latin Grammy in 2011), Recuerdos.
