This is a wonderful time for musicians in the El Paso<\/a> scene; we’ve seen local musicians perform on national television (like Krystall Poppin<\/a> & Julian Kalel<\/a>) & now recently we’ve had one of our local rock bands crack the Billboard charts in May of 2026.<\/p>\n

The Roulettes from El Paso became the recent local band to crack the Billboard charts<\/p>\n

On May 26, 2026, the band’s page announced on social media<\/a> that their song “Take (A Little More)” has reached the Luminate\/Billboard\u2019s Top 50 Rock Songs chart. Thanks to the amount of people who have streamed the song online<\/a> or purchased the song, “Take (A Little More)”\u00a0can be seen\u00a0right next to some hugely recognizable songs by Nickelback, Arctic Monkeys & Linkin Park.<\/p>\n

The song first cracked the Billboard charts at #121 before it topped the top #100.\u00a0Currently it’s settled at #47.<\/p>\n

The song was featured on their self-titled debut album<\/a> released in October 2025 & was produced by two Grammy awarding winning musicians from El Paso; sound engineer Gabe Esparza & producer Roger Argenis. The album itself was recorded at the legendary Sonic Ranch studios in Tornillo.<\/p>\n

When asked how the band felt about this huge accomplishment, lead singer, Juan Flores said that “We\u2019ve spent years believing in this music, and seeing people from our hometown support us at this level is honestly surreal. El Paso has been behind us from day one.”<\/p>\n

The band\u00a0also gave this heartfelt message\u00a0to\u00a0their fans: “We\u2019re incredibly thankful to everyone streaming the music, coming to the shows, sharing our songs, and believing in what we\u2019re building.”<\/p>\n

The Roulettes recently worked with Roger & Gabe again to record an acoustic video for “Take (A Little More)”<\/a> as the band is preparing for the appearance at Cool Canyon Nights on July 2 & Fright Fest 2026 on October 25.<\/p>\n

Have other artists from El Paso reached the BIllboard charts?<\/p>\n

Yes we’ve seen a few.<\/p>\n

Huge congrats to The Roulettes & their team, and to Roger & Gabe for their hard work producing the song (and album!).<\/p>\n
