About Me


How I made my profile:
I used MyWackoSpace.com 's amazing MySpace Editor .This is JoeRays site, Latin Affect is made up of the most talented musicians in the Bay Area. We Bring to you an exciting mix of Old School, Funk, Latin Rock, Oldies, Salsa, Cumbias, & Tex Mex.We will play for any occasion: Weddings, Private Parties, Company Parties, Clubs, Public Events, or festivals.Latin Affect has hundreds of dedicated fans and supporters!!!!!!!!!I feel it's important for us to get back to the reason why we started this band and the music that makes us shine. This band was started to provide our audience with the type of music they grew up with celebrating milestones in their lives. Most of us attended family events where music was an important part of the celebration. Latin Affect, yes-that's LATIN Affect fills a void that is hard to fill for many families. Name one band that can play the type of music we do with the quality that we do in this area. Call us when your ready to party or have a event. JoeRay

Influences: Growing up in East Side San Jose JoeRay was influenced by the music of Tower of Power, the Barkays, Luther Vandross, Prince, El Chicano, Little Joe y la familia and many others. Weddings, parties and family get togethers were always a mix of different types of music and everyone had a great time. JoeRay learned early that having a little bit of something for everyone meant the party was a success. With the natural talent that God gifted him with, JoeRay enjoyed great success on the Karaoke circuit. Winning the South Bay Sing-off and flying off to Spain to sing in clubs was the “kick” JoeRay needed to seriously pursue a music career.JoeRay and his cousin Ed formed Mystique in 1995 and quickly became one of the hottest South Bay bands. JoeRay played with such heavy hitters in the Latin music scene such as Pete and Juan Escovedo, Jorge Santana, Richard Segovia of Bandidos, Tony Menjivar, Leo Rosales and Gibby Ross of Malo, Raul Rico and Karl Perazza of Santana, Richard Bean of Sapo. JoeRay has opened up for El Chicano, Tierra, Malo, Pancho Sanchez and of course, Little Joe. JoeRay has had the privilege of singing the national anthem at the Oakland Stadium and 3-COM park. 10,000 came to Music in the Park to hear JoeRay with Mystique.JoeRay left Mystique in 2001 to concentrate on writing, producing and arranging his original music. Together with his mentor Joe Lopez, JoeRay put together his own studio and started recording “El Barrio”. JoeRay and Joe Lopez continue to create music and assist other artists whenever possible. No stranger to the music scene, JoeRay continued to entertain audiences while working with the musicians and artists he’s held in high regard.An energetic, personable front man JoeRay yearned to be back on stage singing and entertaining the people of the South Bay area. Early 2005, JoeRay and Carlos Silva started forming Latin Affect. People in the South Bay were searching for good music with a little Latin soul. Latin Affect jumped onto the scene and keeps the party hoppin’. Latin Affect members bring their hot music, experience and energy to the people and keep them on their dancing feet.JoeRay was born and raised in San Jose, met his wife cruising on Story and King and continues to raise his family here. This is where he grew up listening to the music, partying with family and friends and where his roots will always be.
