Chip N' Tonyby Alejandro Escovedo

Even though alternative-rock icon Alejandro Escovedo has familial ties to accomplished musicians such as Sheila E (Prince's former drummer turned pop star), his success as a musician was largely self-created and stylistically original, despite suffering through a serious illness simultaneously.

Alejandro Escovedo is related to Santana's former drummer Pete Escovedo - whose daughter Sheila E, who was Prince's former drummer (RIP) and later became her own pop star!
