Rosie Flores is a triple-threat Texas musician and elite lead guitarist who has spent five decades defying the boundaries of the male-centric rock and country worlds.

A pioneer of the 1970s “cowpunk” scene and a founding voice of the alt-country movement, she made history as the first Latina to crack the Billboard country charts.

Her career is defined by a soulful blend of Western Swing, blues, and rockabilly—a legacy that has earned her a Peabody Award, a featured spotlight in the Country Music Hall of Fame, and an official “Rosie Flores Day” in Austin.

Beyond her own songwriting, Flores is a dedicated preservationist who revitalized the careers of rockabilly icons Wanda Jackson and Janis Martin and continues to honor her Mexican heritage through her ensemble, Las Super Tejanas. Today, her impact on American music is studied in university history courses, yet she remains a high-energy “spark plug” live performer.

Don’t miss the chance to experience the goosebump-inducing guitar work and authoritative vocals of this true Texas legend.
