For the last decade, Tres Souls—Rocio Mendoza, Roberto Carlos, and Jesus Martinez—have serenaded Los Angeles audiences with their interpretation of bolero, a musical genre that draws from the 1940s “golden era” of Mexican cinema as well as popular recordings from the 1950s and 1960s.

Each member of the trio is an accomplished musician, and each inherited the knowledge and importance of Mexican heritage music through their family and the generations before them.

In their own way, Tres Souls are following in the footsteps of other “Trio Romanticos," such as Eydie Gorme Y Los Panchos, Los Tres Reyes and Los Tres Ases, while interspersing musical influences that can be heard throughout the Los Angeles diaspora.
