ABOUT THE ARTIST

David Jimenez

Texas-based guitarist and singer-songwriter David Jimenez makes his home in Austin, TX, but was raised in Harlingen, a border town deep in the Rio Grande Valley. While for years he has been known primarily as one of Austin’s premier guitar-slinging hired guns, with his upcoming debut solo album, Sleep On It, he is stepping to center stage for the first time.

David was raised as and remains the youngest boy out of both sides of his mom and dad’s expansive families, making him the last in the family line to bear his patriarchal name. That made for an easy choice when deciding on a name for his solo project, The Last Jimenez—both an homage to his family line and an emphasis on his move to stand on his own as solo artist.

David often refers to his genre of music as “resaca pop”—a callback to the strange bodies of water that are specific only to the valley where he was raised. When the Rio Grande overflows during rainy seasons, its borders push into the surrounding landscape. Once drought conditions come around again, the river recedes, cutting off these “resacas” and abandoning them to flourish on their own—with autonomous ecosystems that include alligators, exotic birds, and other teeming forms of life that flourish in the leftover brackish water. In his own way, David is much like the “resacas” himself, and the music of The Last Jimenez is a reflection of that. While he is isolated from the place he grew up, its influence remains, adding to the combination of elements that allow for something entirely original to form.
