Strand Ventures, Inc Presents
Los Ciego del Barrio

Although their name started out as a joke, most of the “Blind Boys of the Hood” are, in fact, legally blind — and all are fantastic musicians playing a multitude of genres.

The Latino band version of Stevie Wonder has arrived – and while they can’t see they can certainly make people groove. In 2000, “Los Ciegos del Barrio” released their first album, “No lo dude.” The record included beats from instruments the band shares a common passion for, including the drums, keyboard, accordion, rhythm guitar and bass. Since then, they have released three albums.
"We can do the same things anybody else can,” said band director, Alvin Suarez. “Luckily, to play music we only need our ears and not our eyes.” - Fox News
