Rancho Alegre Interview - Conjunto Romo

Recorded in 2012. 

As the traditional audience ages, everyone’s talking about how to get young people to listen to Conjunto and Tejano music. Kyle, Texas, has an answer with Conjunto Romo.

Meet Navor Romo…bassist, bandleader and vocalist. Together, he and his sons Cedrick (accordion/vocals), Noe (bajo sexto) and JJ (drums), are making their mark in Conjunto music. And, in the case of Noe and JJ, juggling high school at the same time.

In their short time in the business, the family has already overcome challenges and criticism, but has also won awards and have also become fan favorites. Through it all, they rely on each other and their loyal fan base for strength, always moving forward and keeping their eyes on the future.

Since this interview was recorded, the boys have become men. They have started families and careers, but they are still together and the band continues to gig all over the state. 

We hope you enjoy getting to know Conjunto Romo.
