Out of the high American desert ride
Däs Borrachos
the band that nobody warned you about.
Their raw telecasters, honkytonk hammered dulcimer, southern border accordian, and penchant for pushin' tequila will surely cure what ails ya. So pull up a beer and lend a tear, grab your partner and knife a deer. Then come out and see Däs Borrachos. Bring some venison.
About the name:
A lotta folks think we're just too dumb to spell dos right. Well, that may be true, but we got some smart friends, and they know about all kinds of stuff. The name is Das ( German for 'the' ) Borrachos ( Spanish for 'drunks' ). Ya see, a long time back, a bunch of Germans settled down in south Texas, and well, it's a long story. Just go read about Tejano and Conjunto music if you want to know the rest. Anyway, since the music's roots are German-Mexican, our friends figured it would be proper if the name was too. And we figured they was right.
