David Hidalgo and Louie Pérez started writing songs together when they were in high school, way before they ever became members of that group known as “just another band from East L.A.”: aka Los Lobos. As the main songwriters in one of the world’s most solid and long-lasting roots-rock enclaves, they’ve accumulated an outstanding collection of tunes. With a canon of work that includes such iconic songs as Will the Wolf Survive? from Los Lobos’ breakthrough album, 1984’s How Will the Wolf Survive?; Kiko and the Lavender Moon, from 1992’s Kiko; the title tunes from Neighborhood, This Time and Good Morning Aztlán; Somewhere in Time from The Ride; Mas y Mas from Colossal Head, and so many others, plus their Latin Playboys side project and soundtrack compositions, the time is finally right for Hidalgo and Pérez to survey their history as songwriters
