Nosotros is one of the most recognizable Latin bands in the Southwest United States. and increasingly beyond. They have twice been featured on NPR’s Alt Latino, twice been named winners in the prestigious John Lennon Songwriting Competition, and have been awarded too many NM Music Awards to count, including Lifetime Achievement (the first ever given to a band). Along the way, they have shared the stage with some of the biggest names in music at some of the most prestigious venues in the country. This 10-piece, Latinx music powerhouse seamlessly combines Latin rhythms - cumbia, salsa, bolero, etc. - with elements of rock and jazz creating an original sound that is unmistakably Nosotros. M.E. Schenck of Hyperactive Music Magazine may have encapsulated their sound best: “Nosotros’ music is not to be explained, it is to be felt in the pit of our souls.” Nosotros has been drawing music lovers to their music for nearly three decades. What began as a teenaged guitar trio in 1994, quickly took on a life of its own, organically developing and growing into something that no one could have predicted or set out to create. Nosotros features Glenn Contreras (Lead Vocals), Carlos Fontana (Lead Vocals), Shane Derk (Guitar), Randy Sanchez (Tres, Guitar), Dave Weeks (Trumpet), Manuel Ramirez (Saxophone), Gilbert Uribe (Bass), Michael Trujillo (Percussion), Jesse Joaquin Parker (Vibes, Percussion) and Dennis Javier Jasso (Drums)
