Los Cochinos is an established Latin rock and Soul band, said by many to have been “passed the torch” from Carlos Santana as one of the only original, Latin Rock and Soul bands that continue to create and perform original Latin Rock music.
Los Cochinos has developed a large following and has released two CDs, most recently “Los Cochinos” in 2017. The band is currently wrapping up our next album titled "Patricia", in honor of Alfonso's mother Patricia. The CD will be released soon, in 2025.
The band’s sound has been described as similar to that of Santana, El Chicano, War and Tower of Power. The band also includes some tasty covers that will keep you on the dance floor! Los Cochinos have performed with El Chicano, Malo, Ozomatli, Joe Bataan and many other notable bands and have developed a significant following throughout the U.S., and globally.
The band features Alfonso Portillo on guitar, who composed most of the original compositions, followed by super talented and seasoned player "The Professor", Donald Osborne on keyboards (Etta James). On Sax is the spectacular Ric Alexander. Ric plays two saxophones at one time and also performs with Tony! Toni! Toné! Up front is the talented singer, percussionist and saxophonist John Marin (Jorge Santana). On bass is the talented Fauss Gamulo and on rhythm guitar is the phenomenal Raj Gopal.
Our solid Latin percussion section is led by Karl Perrazo (Santana) protege Tomas Montano on timbales. On congas from East Oakland is the talented conguero Miguel Martinez. Our sensational drummer is Lorenzo "Lonnie" Macon. Lonnie also is a talented singer, and plays guitar, bass and keyboards!
The ballad “Feel the Same” from our last CD "Los Cochinos" has been a hit song for the band and receives radio airtime in both Northern and Southern California markets.
