Barrio Latino has been the guiding force of traditional and contemporary Mexican and Latin music in Arizona. The band has created pandemonium with audiences  wherever they take their high-powered show.  Their musical styles include everything from  samba, salsa, cha cha, cumbia, polka, bolero, waltz, jazz, blues, Latin cross-over and funk. With their powerhouse percussion and fiery sounds it is certainly difficult to "label"  this very versatile band.  They are masters of whatever style music they play.   Barrio Latino has performed on the same stages with Maureen McGovern and  (singer/dancer) Gregory Hines, Los Lobos and Little Joe y La Familia.  Their resume also includes shows with Selena, Sergio Mendez  and comedians Paul Rodriguez and HBO's Carlos Mencia. Barrio Latino has also had three of their songs placed in two major motion pictures.  "Wait Boy" was placed in the movie "Ransom" starring Mel Gibson.  "Sonoran Salsa" and "Rafael el Colombiano" were placed in the movie  "The Devil's Own" starring Brad Pitt and Harrison Ford.   The people of Arizona have voted Barrio Latino the "Best Latin Band" for the "New Times Music Awards" for the years 1996, 97, 98, 99 AND 2000. Johnny Carrasco (electric, acoustic and synthesized guitars, vocals)  Robert Scott (drums, percussion and vocals).
