Get to know hectortellezjr, the Cuban shaking up America's rock scene
was living in Havana: playing local clubs several nights a week, delivering passionate performances of well-oiled melodic blues rock. His style, merging the grit of Muddy Waters wailing on electric guitars with the tender-hearted yet mysterious air of Jeff Buckley, was not always welcomed by the locals, however.
“I was born into music, but I never wanted to be a musician. I was not into that,” he says. That was, until he was around 11 and his dad’s live performances started to resonate. “There would be lots of parties in my house. A lot of musicians would come, and they’d play songs all night. It was really amazing.”
Now based in Nashville, Tellez Jr. has quickly integrated into a network of musical heavyweights that he continues to glean lessons from. Through Malo, Tellez Jr. met Thirty Tigers owner David Macias, who sent the budding artist’s demos to Barrett Martin . It was instant musical alchemy, with Martin signing on to produce Tellez Jr.’s upcoming material. To help fill in the gaps in instrumentation needed for the project, Martin called on some other notable colleagues.
It’s a personal ethos Tellez Jr. says he has followed in many aspects of his life. He describes himself as a spiritual person who often quotes Buddha on his social media pages and has evangelized the teachings of Don Miguel Ruiz’s groundbreaking philosophical guidebook,, noting that spirituality, meditating, and doing yoga and tai chi have helped him reach a mental plane that aids in writing songs like “Silver Blue Jellyfish.
