Rosie Flores

The title sez it all.  The Rockabilly Filly will be singing back up during Los Lobos' appearance on the Tonight Show this Wednesday (8/11).

Gives you a reason to watch the show...

Ain't that the way of the world?  Just before hitting the road to do some dates with Jon Langford, Rosie had a bit of an accident at home and broke her arm.  For an amazing guitar player, a broken arm is a bit of a problem.

Thus, she has had to cancel this week's shows in the midwest.  Jon Langford will soldier on in Berwyn and Springfield, but alas St Louis will have to wait.

Dates in May we're gonna see about.  Stay tuned.

Sorry about that.  We'll get her back to Chicago and St Louis and beyond as soon as she can feed herself again.

The adorable Rosie Flores breaks hearts all around Austin, TX in this new video!

Rosie's new album Girl of the Century broke into the top 20 on the national AMA charts coming in at #18.

Sure, it's a dead medium, but there are still some stations out there that care.

Rosie's fab new album Girl of the Century was clocked in at #37 on Amazon.com's "Outstanding 2009 albums you may have missed."

Prove them wrong by NOT missing it.  Check out the whole list here.

Here's a nice long review and interview with Rosie Flores about her new album Girl of the Century.  She talks about the album title and artwork, meeting Johnny Cash at an airport, looking more like Jimmy Buffett than the Man in Black
