Zayra Alvarez was born in 1978 in Puerto Rico and grew up playing music in the scenic town of Arroyo. She joined her first band at age 14, but a few years later she decided to give up serious music playing. Not long after, Alvarez moved to Dallas with a friend, which rekindled her interest in songwriting. Her talent quickly caught the eye of Dallas-based Brando Records, and it wasn't long before she recorded her first EP and went on tour with Blue October. Her first full length CD, Ruleta, was released near the end of 2004.
In 2006 she was selected as finalist for the CBS show Rock Star: Supernova. Information from the artist's site

Vans Warped Tour 2009 Warped just began -- Dallas is the fifth stop -- so Bad Religion, NOFX et al will still be fresh. This year, they've got fewer stages and longer sets (40 minutes instead of 30). Get there early for Colorado duo 3OH!3 and Brit punkers Gallows (pictured, credit Jay West). More info
