How's everybody doing out there tonight?

How about these Honky Tonk Mariachis?

Are y'all ready to have some fun here at the Ector Theatre?

Well, what I wanna know is do we have any Patsy Cline fans out there?

Well, if you love country music, you love Patsy Cline.

This is one of my all time favorites but of course, we put a little cumbia to it.

We hope you like our country music with chili peppers.

This is a little Patsy Cline "Walkin' After Midnight" y'all.

Woo!

("Walkin' After Midnight") That feels good y'all!

Woo!

Well, do y'all feel like dancing in your seats?

Well, let's get right onto it.

This is a song I wrote, you guys, I had moved from San Antonio, Texas, to Nashville, Tennessee.

I moved there because my abuelita put a little mission on my heart.

She says, "Mi'ja, you're gonna be making country music with chili peppers."

So I moved there and I kept writing songs and there was one rainy day when I was really down and out.

You know what I mean?

Have you ever been there before?

Down and out.

I stood there staring out a window, pouring down rain with my co-writers.

And we wrote this little song.

I hope you like it.

So that rainy day turned into one of my favorite songs.

We shot a video down in Mexico and got to make more records.

My great grandfather Manuel Anaya Urbina crossed the border in El Paso in 1907.

The only thing he was carrying was a bible.

Two weeks before we made history on the Grand Ole Opry, the first act to ever bring mariachi to that stage, I got a phone call.

Some gentleman had found my great-grandfather's Bible in a store in San Antonio.

Our grandparents are with us.

Whether they're with us, we all are their destiny.

And this is "Manuel's Destiny".

("Manuel's Destiny" by Stephanie Urbina Jones) ♪ Generations ago he came from Mexico ♪ ♪ To the Promise Land ♪ ♪ One night in the dark ♪ ♪ He followed his heart cross the Rio Grande ♪ ♪ Oh, he walked from El Paso alone on a dirt road ♪ ♪ With the sun shining down from above ♪ ♪ To old San Antone where he found his home ♪ ♪ And someone to love ♪ ♪ Through the dirt and the dust, ♪ ♪ From dawn to dusk oh, he worked hard, painting graves ♪ ♪ Every border he crossed brought him closer to God ♪ ♪ And the freedom he'd find some day ♪ ♪ Like a bird in the sky with his heart open wide ♪ ♪ And the faith to fly ♪ ♪ Like an unbridled horse ♪ ♪ On an uncharted course to a better life ♪ ♪ With hope in his soul, he's got his own way to go ♪ ♪ He believed he could do anything ♪ ♪ That was the story they told ♪ ♪ When I left home at 20 years old ♪ ♪ Manuel's destiny ♪ ♪ So I got in car with my Spanish guitar ♪ ♪ Bound for Tennessee ♪ ♪ As I drove through my fear, I felt his spirit near ♪ ♪ It was guiding me ♪ ♪ I was strong, I was able ♪ ♪ I waited on tables, said yes sir, no ma'am 'cause I knew ♪ ♪ I'd get the chance for my dream to dance ♪ ♪ And do what I was born to do ♪ ♪ Like a bird in the sky with my heart open wide ♪ ♪ And the faith to fly ♪ ♪ Like an unbridled horse ♪ ♪ On an uncharted course to a better life ♪ ♪ With hope in my soul, its got its own way to go ♪ ♪ I believe I can do anything ♪ ♪ You see, his spirit, it lives on in me ♪ ♪ I'm so grateful to live and be free ♪ ♪ Like a bird in the sky with his heart open wide ♪ ♪ And the faith to fly ♪ ♪ Like an unbridled horse ♪ ♪ On an uncharted course to a better life ♪ ♪ With hope in his soul, he's got his own way to go ♪ ♪ He believed he could do anything ♪ ♪ That was the story they told ♪ ♪ When I left home at 20 years old ♪ ♪ Manuel's destiny ♪ ♪ Generations ago, he came from Mexico ♪ ♪ To the Promised Land ♪ Gracias, y'all.

Well, I'd like to know, do we have any feisty, spicy, sometimes mean women out there?

(laughs) I think that's the way they make us here in Texas, you guys.

Well, I had a very feisty, spicy, sometimes mean little Mexican abuelita, grandmother.

Her name was Virginia Urbina Jones.

We lived at 115 North Cibolo on the west side of San Antonio.

And let me tell you something, if there was a crack in the sidewalk, the mayor got a call and it got taken care of.

Everybody knew Senora Jones.

I moved to Nashville.

I had this great passion to celebrate our Hispanic heritage in country American music.

I started writing songs.

I thought, "This is great.

I can write songs in my pajamas with my best friends drinking coffee.

I don't have to put any makeup on."

And one day I got a phone call from my abuelita and she says, "Mi'ja, I'm dying."

And so as you can imagine, I flew to San Antonio and I was there with her, with my dad and my tio.

And we midwifed her between this world and the next.

She was talking to my grandfather on the other side and then she would come back and talk to us.

Just before she passed, she took my hand as if she was looking through me and she says, "Mi'ja, you are going to be a mensajera.

You are going to be traveling all over the world making country music with chili peppers."

I said, "I can't.

I can't even speak Spanish.

I barely speak Spanglish.

I can't make an enchilada, Grandma."

She says, "Mi'ja, it's your heart and you will."

There beside her bed, I wrote this song for her.

She heard the first verse and chorus before she passed.

This is for all you feisty, spicy, sometimes mean women out there.

("La Reina De Los Angeles" by Stephanie Urbina Jones) - Vamonos, Stephanie!

♪ I can smell frijoles in the kitchen ♪ ♪ I can hear laughter in the air ♪ ♪ I can hear her yelling, Hey Mi'ja ♪ ♪ Please do something with your hair ♪ ♪ La reina, la reina de Los Angeles ♪ ♪ Is dancing through my dreams ♪ ♪ La reina, la reina de Los Angeles ♪ ♪ Is watching over me ♪ ♪ Now I can see my sexy abuelita ♪ ♪ That means grandma, y'all ♪ ♪ Polishing her halo night and day ♪ ♪ Kickin' off her heels all over heaven ♪ ♪ As a band of mariachi angels play ♪ ♪ La reina, la reina de Los Angeles ♪ ♪ Is dancing through my dreams ♪ ♪ La reina, la reina de Los Angeles ♪ ♪ Is watching over me ♪ ♪ She's rounding up her posse of angels ♪ ♪ I can feel them right here by my side ♪ ♪ Protecting me from all the gringo dangers ♪ ♪ And telling Pancho Villa how to ride ♪ ♪ Now, if there is a slot machine in heaven ♪ ♪ In heaven ♪ ♪ Don't you know that she'll be sitting there ♪ ♪ In heaven ♪ ♪ Smoking cigarettes since seein' sevens ♪ ♪ With all those holy rollers in her hair ♪ ♪ La reina, la reina de Los Angeles ♪ ♪ Is dancing through my dreams ♪ ♪ La reina, la reina de Los Angeles ♪ ♪ Is watching over me ♪ ♪ Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay ♪ ♪ Canta y no llores ♪ ♪ Porque cantando se allegra ♪ ♪ Cielito lindo ♪ ♪ Los corazones ♪ Gracias, y'all.

Well, when I was like two or three years old growing up in San Antonio, Texas, or anywhere in Texas especially, I fell in love, madly in love with mariachi.

I thought they were the most beautiful, the most incredible entertainers.

And when I get to sing with them, (laughs) I feel three years old with my dresses and everything.

This is a song about the city of San Antonio, "The River of Love".

("The River of Love" by Stephanie Urbina Jones) ♪ On any moonlit night ♪ ♪ In old San Antonio ♪ ♪ You can feel the moon down where river flows ♪ ♪ Mariachis play like they did long ago ♪ ♪ Yes, there is love in the air ♪ ♪ In old San Antonio ♪ ♪ Amor, amor ♪ ♪ Amor, amor ♪ ♪ The stars in your eyes and the song in the night ♪ ♪ Are what dreams are made of ♪ ♪ Amor, amor ♪ ♪ Amor, amor ♪ ♪ Take me in your arms and we'll dance until dawn ♪ ♪ Down on the river of love ♪ (mariachi players shout) ♪ Cada noche feliz ♪ ♪ En ciudad San Antonio ♪ ♪ You can feel the moon down where the river flows ♪ ♪ Mariachis cantan como cantaban ayer ♪ ♪ Hay calor de amor ♪ ♪ En ciudad San Antonio ♪ ♪ Amor, amor ♪ ♪ Amor, amor ♪ ♪ Las estrellas en el cielo ♪ ♪ Y la luz del sol celebran con Dios ♪ ♪ Amor, amor ♪ ♪ Amor, amor ♪ ♪ Take me in your arms and we'll dance until dawn ♪ ♪ Down on the river of love ♪ ♪ Take me in your arms and we'll dance until dawn ♪ ♪ Down on the river of love ♪ (Stephanie shouts) Gracias, y'all.

Well, before we go on, I wanna start just by thanking a few people who brought us here to Odessa to the Ector Theatre not too long ago.

They're the ones who opened the door.

I know he can't be here tonight, but I really wanna thank Randy Ham.

Thank you so much Randy, for inviting us.

I wanna thank Ramsey and your precious daughter and Adam and I'll get to thanking everybody else in a little bit but I just wanted to start by saying thank you for inviting us.

(Stephanie strums guitar) So I started out as a songwriter, as I told y'all, and after my grandmother passed, it was really hard for me to make the commitment.

I just really didn't think that I had what it took.

I didn't think I had the voice, I didn't think I had the looks.

All the things that we all think, right?

So one night in a prayer, this song was my answered prayer and I have never looked back.

("I Am Home" by Stephanie Urbina Jones) ♪ When I was just 18 years old ♪ ♪ I left my roots in San Antone ♪ ♪ And headed out down the road on my own ♪ ♪ I waited tables in New Orleans ♪ ♪ Bummed a ride to the Keys ♪ ♪ Spent a year in Arizona on my way to California ♪ ♪ Oh, I've traveled miles and miles to find ♪ ♪ That nowhere held my piece of mind ♪ ♪ It's here inside this heart of mine ♪ ♪ That you hold ♪ ♪ And as I stumble through this crazy maze ♪ ♪ My refuge is this sacred place ♪ ♪ In your arms I'm finally safe and sound ♪ ♪ I am home ♪ ♪ Yeah ♪ ♪ I know nothing in this world's forever ♪ ♪ Life can change like the weather ♪ ♪ But for now at least I know ♪ ♪ I've got a place to rest my soul ♪ ♪ I traveled miles and miles to find ♪ ♪ That nowhere held my peace of mind ♪ ♪ It's here inside this heart of mine ♪ ♪ That you hold ♪ ♪ And as I stumble through this crazy maze ♪ ♪ My refuge is this sacred place ♪ ♪ In your arms I'm finally safe and sound ♪ ♪ I am home, sheltered from life's storms ♪ ♪ Home, it's the love I've never known ♪ ♪ Oh, I've traveled miles and miles to find ♪ ♪ That nowhere held my piece of mind ♪ ♪ It's here inside this heart of mine that you hold ♪ ♪ And as I stumble through this crazy maze ♪ ♪ My refuge is this sacred place ♪ ♪ In your arms I'm finally safe and sound ♪ ♪ I am home ♪ ♪ S sure is good to be home ♪ ♪ Sure is good to be home ♪ ♪ Sure is good to be home ♪ ♪ Sure is good to be home ♪ ♪ Sure is good to be home ♪ So you know, we all have songs.

Three bars in and we are taken back to a moment in time.

Could have been the first time we fell in love.

Could have been sitting there with someone that we loved.

For me, the songs and the sounds that take me back and remind me who I am and where I came from are mariachis.

They make me laugh, they make me happy, and they make me cry.

("Mariachis Make Me Cry" by Stephanie Urbina Jones) ♪ One of my first memories ♪ ♪ Is wrapped in age old melodies ♪ ♪ Passed down like a legacy ♪ ♪ Stories of a history ♪ ♪ When I hear that music play ♪ ♪ It just carries me away ♪ ♪ Cuando calienta el sol ♪ ♪ Volver, volver ♪ ♪ My heart goes back to a scene from long ago ♪ ♪ Where love and laughter filled my soul ♪ ♪ Reminding me that I belong to a rich heritage ♪ ♪ Captured by some grateful tears fill my eyes ♪ ♪ Mariachis make me cry ♪ ♪ When I was young we would sit around the kitchen table ♪ ♪ At grandma's house listenin' to the radio ♪ ♪ And we'd play the sounds of Mexico ♪ ♪ She'd smile and reminisce ♪ ♪ About all the things she missed to ♪ ♪ Cuando calienta el sol ♪ ♪ Volver, volver ♪ ♪ Her whole world go back to a scene from long ago ♪ ♪ Where love and laughter filled her soul ♪ ♪ Reminding her that she belongs to a rich heritage ♪ ♪ Captured by some grateful tears fill her eyes ♪ ♪ Mariachis made her cry ♪ - Mr. Curtis called that onya.

Well you guys, I was born in San Antonio, Texas but I was raised in honky-tonks.

(laughs) Anybody here ever heard of Luckenbach?

♪ Let's go to Luckenbach, Texas ♪ You know that song.

That's right.

I used to go there every weekend and sit there under the big live oak tree and watch these famous poets, Guy Clark, Townes Van Zandt, carve out songs with their guitar.

Margie the sheriff and bartender was my babysitter.

This is a little honky-tonk shuffle, but it's a meaningful song that no matter what, we will always meet again.
