The lyrics of ‘La Lucha’ work as a conversation between the narrator – a worker – and the ‘owner’, the man in charge, who the narrator is toiling for. It pays homage to the struggles of his grandparents and their working lives.\n\nFlores explains: “My grandma would tell me stories about how families would pile into railroad boxcars and be transported farm to farm this way. Once they reached the farm, they would hop out, work the field, get back into the boxcar, and then head to the next farm. She said trains would be so packed that you couldn’t even lay down, so she got used to taking little naps standing up. This kind of resilience and perseverance is not only inspiring but makes me proud to come from such strong people.”\n--\nSee the music video for \"La Lucha\": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KMjMUGeuChs", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }, { "id": 3622588, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3622588/?format=api", "airdate": "2026-02-26T15:04:46-08:00", "show": 66036, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/66036/?format=api", "image_uri": "https://www.kexp.org/filer/canonical/1588181844/22496/", "thumbnail_uri": "https://www.kexp.org/filer/canonical/1588181847/22497/", "song": "Young, Dumb & Full of Beer", "track_id": null, "recording_id": null, "artist": "Josiah Flores", "artist_ids": [], "album": "Live on KEXP", "release_id": null, "release_group_id": null, "labels": [ "KEXP" ], "label_ids": [ "89e0503e-96f0-41b4-835f-2c542b7fcb44" ], "release_date": "2026-02-26", "rotation_status": null, "is_local": false, "is_request": false, "is_live": false, "comment": "This song is on Josiah Flores' 2025 sophomore album, \"Doin' Fine\": https://josiahflores.bandcamp.com/album/doin-fine\n--", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }, { "id": 3622587, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3622587/?format=api", "airdate": "2026-02-26T15:01:31-08:00", "show": 66036, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/66036/?format=api", "image_uri": "https://www.kexp.org/filer/canonical/1588181844/22496/", "thumbnail_uri": "https://www.kexp.org/filer/canonical/1588181847/22497/", "song": "The Names We Changed", "track_id": null, "recording_id": null, "artist": "Josiah Flores", "artist_ids": [ "ae3e92c3-2399-452d-9662-3101dd4827ff" ], "album": "Live on KEXP", "release_id": null, "release_group_id": null, "labels": [ "KEXP" ], "label_ids": [ "89e0503e-96f0-41b4-835f-2c542b7fcb44" ], "release_date": "2026-02-26", "rotation_status": null, "is_local": false, "is_request": false, "is_live": false, "comment": "Norteño accordion player Flaco Jimenez, ranchero singer Vicente Fernandez and Woody Guthrie, along with Johnny Cash, George Straight and Blaze Foley—a friend of Townes Van Zandt—all influenced Flores. “I loved the storytelling and the heartbreak in the songs they sang, so I was drawn to that style of music,” Flores said.
