    "VOTE FOR RADIO LA CHUSMA AND SEND US TO JAMAICA by clicking the following link: .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .... RADIO LA CHUSMA Biography .... Radio la Chusma and their border-world-beat sound are quickly becoming a cultural phenomenon in the American Southwest. A funky mix of traditional roots reggae infused with Mesoamerican Afro-beats, this high energy group seamlessly breaks down cultural, artistic and even political barriers using highly danceable music tied to their borderland as melting-pot mantra. Featuring four-part vocal harmonies and electrifying vocal, violin and guitar solos, Radio La Chusma has been inspiring crowds for the past eight years. Radio La Chusma is currently performing over one hundred shows a year and has strong followings in El Paso, Juarez, San Diego, Santa Fe, Taos, San Antonio, Corpus Christi and Austin. Currently, the band is in the studio working on their new full-length album and a soundtrack for a movie based on the border. ....

The border is collaborative, full of creation. When two huge forces like our two nations meet, great energies are unleashed. Something beautiful erupts.” Ernesto Tinajero ....

Radio La Chusma is registered with BMI Music Group. .... Radio La Chusma( riff-raff radio) is the sound of the underground culture, an alternative to mainstream thinking. "Chusma" a once negative term reffering to the poor by the aristocrates, made a comic punchline by 'Chavo Del Ocho", has been adopted to unite the youth who seek the truth and search for a true connection in these disconnected times. (Convicted Artists Interview) .... La Chusma hit its stride in the past year. The band broke an attendance record for a local act at Music Under the Stars, attracting 13,000 last year. They played South By Southwest, wowing the Austinfolk. They recorded a track with reggae legend Pato Banton. And they live the message of community found in their music. Then there's the music: life-affirming, roots-reaching, soul-igniting. Their follow-up to 2007's “91.5 MexM,” out later this year, can only take them higher. (Whats Up Magazine Best Local Original Band 2009) .... “Radio La Chusma rocks hard. It is a polyglot collective that plays rock reggae Afrobeat cumbia music. The members are fiercely paseño. Led by dreadlocked prophet Ernie Tinajero, they preach border love and Chuco-Rasta uplift…He dances his guitar around, high stepping like a wizardly sex tarantula.” By Luis Alberto Urrea (Playboy November 2009) ....
