In 2018 Javier Hinojosa and Isaac Mendiola began to weave themselves into the threads and fabrics of what is now Adagio Drag. Starting out as an acoustic duet they began writing original songs and preforming them at local pubs and bars in the Rio Grande Valley. In 2019 they released their first EP Sketches with Alexander Valdez on drums, Javier Hinojosa taking up the work load of playing, guitar, bass and keyboards and Isaac Mendiola writing all lyrics and recording vocals. Their next EP Never Be the Same was released in 2020. The EP embraced a weightier sound, giving rise to a more somber perspective, distinctly audible in the track "Paranoia." This transition enabled the band to explore fresh dimensions of songwriting and paved the way for innovative ideas in preparation for their upcoming album entitled Handcuffed to the Ferris Wheel, which was released in 2023. Having already produced two EPs and an album, Adagio Drag embarked on the creation of their upcoming single, "Pick A God And Pray," scheduled for a 2024 release.
"Pick a God and Pray" by Adagio Drag is a journey that blends hooks that stick, melodies that linger with a rhythm that just won’t quit. The lyrics deliver a message of hope that remain long after the music has stopped. With roots deeply embedded in the Rio Grande Valley, Adagio Drag brings a touch of smooth sounds and a hint of solid vibes just waiting in the wings to be on the airwaves.
