RJ’s Prospectors was the name of Ralph Jasso’s short lived band. Cedric Bixler Zavala and Juan Alderete played on demos which were uploaded to Myspace in 2009. These recordings were never formally released. Another band by the name OSO was announced and had the same line-up with one song released ‘ Delorean.’ It is uncertain if this is the same project.
The original description read:
“album out soon!!!

-RJ”
Cedric further commented at a later date:
“I made a record with Ralph Jasso, and it has yet to see the light of day. I think it’s technically 3 years old. I listen to it, and it breaks my heart. He is a beast, and this record is the beast’s gentle acoustic side. I played drums and helped arrange and write lyrics. He calls it RJ’s Prospectors which is really unfortunate cuz i think he forgot that there is a UTEP team with the same name. He needs to name it Ralphael Domique Jasso, I think Omar is going to put it out sometime.”
