Dos Lobos – David Hidalgo and Louie Perez, primary songwriters and co-founders of Los Lobos, embark on acoustic tour

Louie Pérez of Los Lobos said it’s been almost 40 years since he and David Hidalgo first sat down and made music.

It was all so simple then, when the two students at Garfield High School in East Los Angeles would hunker down in Hidalgo’s room and bang out the tunes.

“I went over to his house one day for a year,” said Pérez with a laugh, on the phone while hanging out in a Borders book store in Santa Ynez, seeking shelter from the early January storm that ravaged the West Coast. “We just started playing guitars, then we started our first band together in the early ’70s, around ’71 or ’72. Then, Los Lobos happened and everybody was out of school by then. The band came together and we just continued to do what we learned how to do, just make music and write songs together.”"*
