Los Lonely Boys map trek to 'Crossroads'

Roots-rocking "Texicans" Los Lonely Boys [ tickets ] have mapped out a busy summer as they look to hit the road behind a documentary DVD that tells their story.

The trio, which also continues to back its 2006 studio album, "Sacred," will kick off a long stretch of dates Sunday (3/25) in Wichita Falls, TX. The band's itinerary--which is listed in full below--is a mixed bag of headlining dates and festival appearances, with the emphasis turning more to the festival side as summer wears on.

"Los Lonely Boys [ tickets ]: Cottonfields and Crossroads," directed by Hector Galan, tells the story of the three Garza brothers--Henry (guitar), Jojo (bass) and Ringo (drums)--who would eventually become Los Lonely Boys, from their early days "under the tutelage of their father," according to a press release, "playing country bars and Mexican cantinas in and around San Angelo [TX], to Nashville, where they endure turmoil and heartbreak, to their rise to fame, all the while maintaining the strong family bond that has always kept them afloat."

"Sacred" is the follow-up to Los Lonely Boys' 2003, self-titled debut, which, on the strength of the Grammy-winning single "Heaven," has been certified double-platinum in the US for shipping more than 2 million copies. The new album entered The Billboard 200 chart at No. 2 during its debut week in July, but quickly fell from the upper echelon.

The family group released its debut album on the small Or Music label. Sony picked up distribution for the release in 2004, and the group's popularity quickly took off.
