Henry Garza Family Quotations

Music is in our blood. Its a family tradition. We got so much from our father. He taught us, and we just learned by listening to him. We cant read music and we cant read notes. Everything we play is by ear and by heart.

We've worked really hard our whole lives to be where we're at today, ... It's not like something that we really wanted - we just wanted to be happy. Music was just survival. It was the way our family got through, and paid the phone bill and the light bill and got shoes for someone.

We're really a family before we are a band. Being a band and all, that's just a plus, we're that close. We'll be on the road for months at a time and then we'll be home and we'll see each other the next day and it's like we never saw each other.

We always played as a family together. . . . Music was what we did to bring smiles to people's faces and tears to their eyes and pay the light bill and whatever.

Music has been in our family for generations.
