The Texas Talent Musicians Association (TTMA) has scrapped plans to give Grupo Mazz singer Joe Lopez, a convicted sex offender, a Lifetime Achievement Award at the annual Tejano Music Awards this weekend. The decision follows press reports on the controversial recognition and simmering anger from fans.
Singer Joe Lopez, featured in a decades-old file photo, was the frontman for influential Tejano band Grupo Mazz.
The awards show is scheduled to take place Saturday, Oct. 21, at San Antonio's Boeing Center at Tech Port. Lopez and Gonzales were both part of the groundbreaking act Grupo Mazz, which blended pop and rock with Tex-Mex sounds. Lopez left to start a solo career in the late '90s, while Gonzalez continued on with the renamed Jimmy Gonzalez y Grupo Mazz, which won several Latin Grammys.
