The Bosque Kings
Introducing the new sounds of a style called Bosque Blues, the Bosque Kings infuse the grooves of Latin, Blues and Funk into a rockin’ dance genre that can be described as powerful, catchy and dance-worthy no matter what style you prefer. Featuring musicians that have made a name for themselves in the local as well as international scene, performing and recording for artists such as Sparks, The Wallflowers, Nosotros and even Paul McCartney, the Bosque Kings take the music to a higher level. Focusing on a sound that reflects the cultural influences that have been brought to the Southwest, the Bosque Kings bring you home to a sound only New Mexico seasoned musicians can supply.
"Before success comes in any man's life, he is sure to be met with much temporary defeat, perhaps some failure. When defeat overtakes a man, the easiest and the most logical thing to do is to quit. Failure is a trickster with a keen sense of irony and cunning. It takes great delight in tripping one when success is almost within reach."
- Napoleon Hill
"Failure is the condiment that gives success its flavor."
- Truman Capote
