   About Adrián Terrazas-González
Born on October 17, 1975 and raised in Chihuahua, Chih. México, Adrián Terrazas-González grew up surrounded by the traditional music of Central-America, from Danzon, Boleros and Rumba to Son and Mambo. Adrián began developing his musical ability at the age of 10. He was inclined to play the flute with an understanding of classical music and a peculiar attraction to ancient Aztec music. Five years later he took on the tenor saxophone. His grandmother, a "Rumba Nut" according to Adrián, urged her grandson in that direction, but the young player had already picked out a model for himself -John Coltrane.  


2001 was a year that would profoundly impact Adrián’s music. While pursuing his sociological and musical studies at The University of Texas at El Paso he learned more about the transmission of these ideas and theories through music. In an effort to track the development of certain philosophical and spiritual traditions observed by ancient cultures, Adrián arranged to meet, learn and creatively collaborate with musicians involved with traditions originating from West Africa. One of his main interests was the Yoruba tradition (predominantly out of western Nigeria), the ancient African religion underlying Santeria (Cuba and Puerto Rico), Candombl (Baha, Brazil), Vodun (Haiti) and Cu Taan (México).


In 2004, Adrián joined The Mars Volta in the studio on the album Frances the Mute and continues to work with the band (as full flesh member) on subsequent albums (Live Scabdates 2005, Amputechture 2006) and all The Mars Volta side projects (movie scores, DVD‘s etc). The group includes guitarist Omar A. Rodriguez-Lopez, lyricist/vocalist Cedric Bixler-Zavala, bassist Juan Alderete, guitarist Paul Hinojos-González, drummer Thomas Pridgen, percussionist Marcel Rodriguez-Lopez and keyboardist Isaiah Ikey Owens. Working with The Mars Volta has gained Adrian further exposure and renown, particularly in Europe, and through which he was awarded his first Grammy Award on 2008. The Mars Volta also appeared as the musical guest on The Henry Rollins Show, The Tonight Show and The BBC just to mention a few. 


Adrián’s solid performance and versatility grants him the opportunity to perform with a wide variety of professionals in the musical world. Adrián has shared the stage and recorded with the likes of Larry Harlow, Erik A. Unsworth, Dr. Willy Hill, Dr. Donald Wilkinson, Damo Suzuki, Lenny Castro, Money Mark Nishita, Jay Azzolina, Los Lobos, Reggie Young, Ozomatli, EMI Gospel Artist Smokie Norful,Brian Allen, Juan Alderete and Lisa Papineau/Big Sir (Und Und Die Scheiße Ändert Sich Immer 2006), Omar A. Rodriguez-Lopez Quintet (Omar A. Rodriguez-Lopez 2005, Please Heat This Eventually 2007, Se Dice Bisonte, No Búfalo 2007, music scoring for the Guillermo Arriaga Jordan and Jorge Hernandez Aldana film El Búfalo de la Noche performed by The Mars Volta), Robert Carranza, Antonio Sánchez, Bob Sheppard, Hans Glawishing, John Beasley, Brian Lynsh, John Frusciante, Tom Kessler, Gil Cervantes, Rafael Alcala, Mark Aanderud, Jonathan Hischkz and Deantoni Parks, among others. 


Adrián’s professional involvement with the music industry has continued to develop under his own publishing and record label EL REGIMEN Music and his band EL REGIMEN Collective. He collaborates with an eclectic number of international musicians, tours on an intensive yearly worldwide schedule, while teaching workshops to numerous school districts and universities around the world.

Adrian,

I was just curious as to how you felt about Coltrane's "Giant Steps" album.

It's one of my favorite jazz albums, and your opinion would always be appreciated due to your stunning talent and actual admiration for the legendary musician.

There's so many great albums out there man, so I guess it wouldn't hurt to start with Coltrane.

Thanks!

- Hector
