Alejandro Escovedo (born January 10, 1951, in San Antonio, Texas) is a Mexican-American singer-songwriter. Escovedo's family tree includes former Santana percussionist Pete Escovedo and Pete's daughter, Sheila E (also Prince's former drummer and later a pop star).
For those who love Alejandro Escovedo and all he has achieved in the last 47 years, a chance to catch up with his latest chapter live is always much more than any other live show. It’s like going to church (an out-of-date reference, perhaps – but you get the drift).
Alejandro Escovedo is a man who needs no introduction, yet strangely, he does. For more than four decades the multi-faceted singer-songwriter has been notching up the kind of credibility of a rock and roll legend, playing in punk bands and then having a prolific solo career.
If we ever needed the healing power of music, it was last night. Fortunately Alejandro Escovedo and Adam McGrath were there to help ease the pain of what had happened just a few hours earlier.
