Tejano Music Convention 2008: Joe Posada, Sunny Sauceda deliver the goods

NGL_16posada2_134038.JPGSan Antonio-native Joe Posada, the saxophonist who merges jazz with old-school Tejano, was the man with the moxie Saturday night at the Dallas Convention Center. Onstage he was decked out in a dapper black suit, white shirt, pink tie and a fedora hat. His shiny, golden sax constantly hung from a strap around his neck. That elegant demeanor matched his music. His five-piece band featured accordionist Sunny Sauceda, who worked the squeezebox in his trademark jeans, black T-shirt and two-toned biker gloves. Add his bald head, dark goatee and sunglasses for an imposing stance, even if the guy's not exactly tall. Guests during the set included vocalists Joe Jama, one of the original members of the Royal Jesters, and David Marez, the robust singer from Tejano's '90s glory days.

Hands down, the BEST performance of the weekend. I was completely blown away by the talent Joe Posada exhibited in one very, very short set. I could not get enough of his voice, his sax and his incredible charm. The artists that appeared with him were also awesome (LOVE David Marez!!). They were all amazing and a wonderful addition to an already incredible performance. It was true privilege to have been a part of the many fans at Joe's feet. It was an experience of a life time.
