With a blend of polka, country, blues and other musical genres, the Tejas Brothers have established themselves as an innovative Texas musical quartet. Formed in 2006, the group has become one of the best live acts in Texas through their electrifying and fun shows.

Its really hard to pin down exactly what type of music youre listening to one song will be rock, and the next will be polka, Jones said. Im looking forward to hearing Johnny Cash sung in Spanish. Theyre going to be a lot of fun, and tickets are selling fast.
