NPR’s Tiny Desk has featured a slew of\u00a0indie bands and global pop stars, and this month, for Hispanic Heritage Month, San Antonio-based Los Texmaniacs can add themselves to the impressive roster.<\/p>\n

The band, made up of Max Baca, nephew Josh Baca, Noel Hernandez and Chris Rivera, was part of the line-up for\u00a0El Tiny,<\/a> which included weekly, albeit miniature, concerts from Latino bands such as Brazilian singer-songwriter Tim Bernardes, Mexican ska band Pante\u00f3n Rococ\u00f3, Yendry and Los Mirlos.\u00a0<\/p>\n

For this go-around, the Grammy Award-winning group, joined by NPR’s Felix Contreras, played\u00a0classics like “Ay Mama,” “Boom and a Bang” and “Herido” as well as a new song, “Dejalo (Let it go)\u00a0from their upcoming 2027 record, Nuevo Crossroads.<\/p>\n

The band teased the October 8 release of the El Tiny appearance with a September 29 post noting, “The Maniacs have invaded Tiny Desk. \ud83e\ude97\ud83d\udd25
