EN TU MIRAR

THE WAY I'D LOVE YOU Feat. Anita Benner

PROBANDOTE

QUECIEGA

Omar Vallejo and Haydn Vitera clownin around with various sound effects we pulled off the web lol.  Nacho!

SUBETE(INTRO)

A reprise of title track "Subete" where we rock out a Guapango groove with violins and trumpets then accelerate into driving rock 8ths with the Viper violin shredding all over it.  Mariachi-style vocals courtesy of Juan Diaz (Kalua).

SUBETE(OUTRO)

(Haydn Vitera / David Vitera)

This one is a funky Latino rocker about letting go and getting out of an unhappy relationship when you realize it's just not working out.  The title is based on a popular "Spanglish" term here in Texas and the Southwest.  "Ahi te watcho" means "see you there" or "see you around."  

iTeWatcho

(David Vitera / Rafael Franco)

Although I didn't write this song, it's near and dear to my heart as it deals with the struggles of Mexican immigrants and honors all they have contributed to our beloved United States.  It's also my first collaboration with the amazing Vanessa Del Fierro and her all-female mariachi Las Coronelas!  

Que Pasara

Working title for this one before we had all the lyrics was "Mexican Biker Song" haha.  Inspired by the Latino biker gangs in Sons Of Anarchy and a guy I knew out in Southern California only as "Cousin David."  He was a bad ass!  I wanted to mix some Mariachi-style trumpets and Latin percussion into a modern Southern Rock groove with Spanglish lyrics.  It's the story of Jonny Guns, a kid who lost his mom at an early age and was raised by his biker father and his motorcyle gang, eventually taking his place as "El Mero Mero" and following in his father's footsteps.  

Livin' For The Ride

(Haydn Vitera / Rodney Alejandro / AJ Vallejo / Omar Vallejo)

Picture sexy vampires on this one!  Lol


Poison & Wine

(Haydn Vitera / AJ Vallejo / Rodney Alejandro)

"Take the joy with the pain / The sonrisas with the rain / Don't be sweatin' what you can't control / That's Just La Vida"

Inpsired by my own daily struggles as I chase my dreams and by the true story of a friend whose fiancee left him after meeting another guy while filming a reality show, this song is about rolling with the punches life throws at you and keeping your head up!

That's Just La Vida

Title track of VITERA's 2010 debut featuring childhood friends and fellow Austin Latino rockers Vallejo.

SUBETE

As far as I know, this is the first-ever LATIN ROCK VIOLIN instrumental.  The title means "The Viper" and it was written for and performed on my amazing 6-string, fretted, flying-V electric Viper created by Wood Violins.  Conjuring up images of a tequila-soaked Robert Rodriguez-style gunfight, this one'll get your blood pumpin!

LA VIBORA

Wrote this one the first night of a gut-wrenching breakup.  It’s about the other side of love...the pain of memories and the darkness that tries to consume you...and finding the strength to keep living your life. 
I made it through and am all the stronger for it!

BTW:  I recorded and mixed this entire track with my buddy AJ Vallejo at VMG Studios in January 2017 in about 45 minutes on a break during another artist’s session.  Hoping to do a full-production with all the proper bells and whistles soon!
