The lyrics are charged with positive and revolutionary messages of social, cultural and feminine empowerment, reinforcing the band s name, Pistolera. The songs speak of love, loss, immigration, human and civil rights and other important issues from a perspective of love versus hate and will have you dancing from the first track.

Mark Torres Travel Tips For Aztlan KPFK 90.7FM Los Angeles
Mark Torres | 02/27/2007
(5 out of 5 stars)

"If you could put The Clash, Flaco Jimenez and Lila Downs in the same room and locked them in until they came up with 10 songs, Pistolera's cd Siempre Hay Salida (There Is Always A Way Out) might be the end result.



Songwriter Sandra Lilia Velasquez takes the lead by writing songs of love, struggle, justice, hope and redemption that touch all of our lives in some way. Backed up by an amazing combo of Maria Elena on acordion, Inca B. Satz on bass and Ani Cordero on drums and backing vocals... this group really swings...!!



Pistolera does to Norteña and Ranchera music what the Klezmatics did for Klezmer music... and more...



Pistolera paints a portrait of humanity of the Mexican people... and pulls the curtain open on the Wizard of Political Propaganda who would have us believe that Mexicans are here solely to take.

Pistolera has written an entire album to the contrary.

When Americans and Mexicans realize as a whole that this whole Immigration issue is simply a scheme that interested parties cooked up to get elected into office... Pistolera will be performing at the Celebration Bash....!!



This cd became a classic the minute is was recorded and will live long beyond any of us.

Oh and pass the chile verde...."

"Energetic, infectious melodies, definately dancable, it is clear they've honed their chops on the bar circuit. The recording has a live feel to it making it easy to duplicate in concert. Vocally they are strongest when utilizing harmonies such as in the tracks "No Suspires", "Acercate" and "No Te Olvidare". All songs are sung in Spanish. Instrumentally they are a lively quartet occasionaly employing horns to accent songs. This could have been used a bit more thoughout the CD, in my opinion. Overall this is a solid CD great for driving, working out or anything lively and active. I look forward to a follow-up to this disc."

"This music infects you with the dance bug. You can't help but move to it. Beautiful harmonies, professional instrumentation.Who'd believe they're from NY?!"
