Leonardo Flaco Jimenez
Singer, Songwriter & Accordionist
Leonardo Bio
Few if any artists in conjunto and Tejano mu- sic have received the level of critical acclaim Flaco Jimenéz has enjoyed over the course of a career that’s spanned six decades, and it’s certain that no one has taken the accordion- fueled Tex-Mex sound to a larger audience than he has.

Without compromising his musical vision, Jimenéz has introduced the traditional conjunto sound to mainstream pop and country listeners thanks to his collaborations with the Texas Tornados, Dwight Yoakam, and the Mavericks, and he is celebrated by adventur- ous rock fans through his work with Ry Cooder, Carlos Santana, Doug Sahm, and the Rolling Stones.

Flaco Jimenéz was born in San Antonio, Texas in 1939, and raised in a musical family; his grandfather Patricio Jimenéz was an accordion player who embraced the polkas and waltz tunes that are conjunto’s stylistic precur- sors, and Flaco’s father, Santiago Jimenéz, Sr., was a pioneering Tex-Mex musician who cut

one of the first conjunto records, “Dices Pes- cao” b/w “Dispensa el Arrempujon” in 1936.

Celebrate south texas culture with us

Join us to support the La Musica de San Anto mural restoration project

The mural is located at 1300 W. Commerce and needs assistance from us to help lead the way. There are unique and lasting contribution levels from $150 to $5,000 to be part of this mural project (see below).

La Musica de San Anto Mural is a commemorative mural project which payshomage to the lives and music of Randy Garibay, Clifford Scott, Rocky Morales, Felix Villarreal, Manny Castillo, Eva Garza, Doug Sahm, Valerio Longoria, Lydia Mendoza, and Rosita Fernandez. The mural has gone on to be a highly visible and emblematic representation of San Antonio music and culture as well as an iconic presence at the West Commerce Street gateway to the Westside of San Antonio.

The mural was completed in 2009. Over the last 10 years, San Antonio’s weather has caused it to fade significantly. Amid unprecedented new development pressure, this iconic and culturally relevant artwork is now in desperate need of restoration. The mural restoration project will preserve a creative, cultural, communal and inspiring work of public art. It has already garnered the support of Google Fiber, UTSA, and Weston Urban, and is a partnership between San Anto Cultural Arts, La Printeria and La Prensa Texas.

David Blancas was born in Nueva Rosita, Coahuila in northern Mexico and began drawing and painting at an early age. He maintains a multifaceted portfolio of teaching, mentoring, and creating public and
private commissions with a specialization in paintings, portraiture, mosaics, and murals. David studied fine art at the University of Texas at San Antonio and has achieved recognition in various regional and national art competitions. He currently resides in San Antonio, Texas and is the sole proprietor of Pintura Artwork Company, a studio, and art gallery that was established in 2002.

He is also the director and lead muralist of Project Inspire: Mural Arts Program, an organization that collaborates with other agencies to produce community murals and other public art projects.

With your help, this project will make a significant impact to preserving this Westside treasure. It would mean much to have your financial support toward this lasting cultural preservation mural collaboration.
