I found myself very involved and interested to see how the disc would end."
--IndependentsOnly.com ![]() "It is nearly impossible to describe the music with precision, mixing percussion, cello, organ and guitar to carefully crafted stories. Chapa's sound is reminiscent of the experimental Vinyl's of the 70's, such as Silver Mt. Zion, with his aerial quotations that are falsely minimalist." Metalorgie.com |

The sound that the Boys have created has a little something for everyone. Blending classical instruments with modern arrangements, Chapa engages listeners of all kinds to this beautiful sound scape. There are stories of hope, despair, love, and chance, side by side with ethereal melodies, warming cello, floating flutes, singing oboes, bouncing bass clarinet, and vibrant vibes.

![]() "It's a bluesy rock album with twang and a kick to the pants. That's what Chapa is. From country twang to tripped-out psychedelia, Chapa shows off an impressive array of vocal styles, at times sounding like a mix of his old band Ojo and Primus."
