Lucero played our first show in April 1998 in a Memphis
warehouse across the street from the Loraine Motel where
Martin Luther King Jr. was shot. Brian Venable and I (Ben
Nichols) decided to start a country band. The idea of
“country” being somewhere between the Pogues, Johnny Cash,
Gram Parsons, and Tom Waits. Brian said early on he wanted
to be in a pretty country band that could play hardcore
shows and piss off the punk rockers. Most of ‘em liked it
though.
Neither Brian or I had played guitar before being in
Lucero. Brian had never been in a band before and I had
only played bass and sang in a Little Rock, AR band called
Red40. This was the first band for both of us in which we
played guitar. This meant keeping the songs simple and
straightforward. Most of More...
Review about Lucero Awesome | Reviewer: Stephen H.
------ About artist/band Lucero
Lucero is one of those bands that you just get addicted to... I remember hearing them for the first time riding around with good friends getting drunk in Southern Arkansas... it was the perfect soundtrack to our night. I love their early stuff like "The War" and "Nobody's Darlings", but they keep pumping out good stuff with every CD.
They are relevant, too. I go see them every time I can in Little Rock. The last show I saw was an impromptu concert at the Rev Room that benefitted a kid that had some serious health issues. It was an awesome show that they put on, and on top of that they squeezed it in between dates on a tour they were in the middle of.. that just made me like em even more. Go see em or buy any album. You won't regret it.

Lucero is one of the most honest bands of our time. They dont complicate their songs with a lot of un needed crap. i mostly listen to older punk rock, but these guys won me over immediatley. If you like Lucero check out Ryan Adams, another honest musician.

------ About the song Nights Like These performed by Lucero
i saw lucero at the armory in cleveland when they played a frat party, and your songs are like my comfort!! i love everythin they do and the way they write their songs, and the meaning that is behind them means alot when it comes to my love for music!! dont ever stop what you were obviously meant to do!!
We've all cried.
We've all felt low.
We've all "dreamed of better days".
When you can listen to a song,
&. tha lyrics jump at you liek these do to me,
you've felt something ..
This song screams at me.
&. I feel myself through these lyrics.

------ About the song Nights Like These performed by Lucero
Talk about putting one feeling deep inside into lyrics. I havent found many songs by Lucero that doesnt bring out a deeper side in me. If you bounce all over the world like I do you come across a lot of things that you try to pull close....but before you can touch it....its gone.

------ About the song Nights Like These performed by Lucero
this song makes me feel many diffrent feelings. i sit & listen to this song on my ipod & i start to know the feeling of this song like nights you just sleep all day feeling depressed. nothings going right & your heart hurts. when you just want to give up cause no matter hard you seem to try nothing gets better. You just want to turn on the world. but you realize there are people there for you in your time of need.
love it | Reviewer: Stevie
------ About the song Hold Me Close performed by Lucero
A waltz the way a waltz should be, a song about holding on to the last vestige of hope in a doomed relationship. Sometimes it's just time to give up the ghost. No matter how much you love, it won't make things right... So beautiful, simple, and so so sad.

I first heard this band in a props bmx video. i think the song was little silver heart, and i just fell in love with them. you can listen to their music no matter what mood your in, depressed lonely excited getting pumped up. me and my friends normally just scream the lyrics while driving in the car. too good.
makes me think about life.
I've sat on my buddy's tailgate on the bank of the Mulberry River(in Arkansas) with a handful of good buddies, listenin to this song & others by Lucero. The songs they write & sing reach out to you. It's reality & true feelings. Feelings that everyone else has felt & it makes you realize that you aren't alone. There's people out there just liek you & feel the same pain.
It makes you realize that maybe someone else sat on their friends tailgate on the bank of a river swayin back & forth around a campfire to the tune of "an old country song that plays on & on".
i love lucero. the songs are meaningful. they express true life things. i love this song. it brings back so many memories for me. it will just bring tears to my eyes. </33

------ About the song Slow Dancing performed by Lucero
This song is amazing. As well as the band. I'm in love.
This song gives me the blues. I mean the setting he sings of is just so sad. The words alone just bring tears to your eyes... and then when you get the music to it... oh man. This guy knows about love and losing it. When love is gone nothing is left but bitter indifference. I think this song is amazing.

I 1st started listening to lucero last year and ever since I heard their cd Tennessee I immediately fell in love with it. Their songs make me feel relaxed and the words connect to what goes on in real life. Lucero should come play in Texas they would make a lot money because their are a lot of people that listen to them.
love it!!! | Reviewer: jessica

Lucero is a great band! It's the type of band that anybody can connect with because they sing about issues that we've all experienced. The songs are deep, but not too complicated; the type that you listen to when you need to get things off your chest. I fell in love with them when I was in a weird situation and what do ya know. . .Lucero had a song that fit the situation perfectly. I love this band. They inspired me to pick up the guitar and now i'm addicted. Listen to it. You'll see what I mean. And while your at it e-mail me to listen to my brothers band(Euphonia). They both rock.
