In the 1950s, 1960s and 1970s, a wave of Chicano pop music surfaced through innovative musicians [[Carlos Santana]], [[Johnny Rodriguez]], [[Ritchie Valens]] and [[Linda Ronstadt]]. [[Joan Baez]], who is also of Mexican-American descent, included Hispanic themes in some of her protest folk songs. Chicano rock is [[rock and roll|rock music]] performed by Chicano groups or music with themes derived from Chicano culture.

There are two undercurrents in Chicano rock. One is a devotion to the original [[rhythm and blues]] roots of Rock and roll including [[Ritchie Valens]], [[Sunny and the Sunglows]], and [[? and the Mysterians]]. Groups inspired by this include [[Sir Douglas Quintet]], [[Thee Midniters]], [[Los Lobos]], [[War (U.S. band)|War]], [[Tierra (group)|Tierra]], and [[El Chicano]], and, of course, the Chicano Blues Man himself, the late Randy Garribay. The second theme is the openness to Latin American sounds and influences. [[Trini Lopez]], [[Santana (band)|Santana]], [[Malo (band)|Malo]], [[Azteca (band)|Azteca]], Toro, [[Ozomatli]] and other Chicano [[Latin rock]] groups follow this approach. Chicano rock crossed paths of other Latin rock genres ([[Rock en español]]) by [[Cubans]], [[Puerto Rican people|Puerto Ricans]], such as [[Joe Bataan]] and Ralphi Pagan and South America ([[Nueva canción]]). Rock band [[The Mars Volta]] combines elements of progressive rock with traditional Mexican folk music and Latin rhythms along with [[Cedric Bixler-Zavala]]'s [[Spanglish]] lyrics.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.harpmagazine.com/articles/detail.cfm?article_id=6393 |title=HARP Magazine |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081208094500/http://www.harpmagazine.com/articles/detail.cfm?article_id=6393 |archive-date=December 8, 2008 |url-status=usurped |access-date=October 13, 2008}}</ref>

[[Chicano punk]] is a branch of Chicano rock. There were many bands that emerged from the [[California punk]] scene, including [[The Zeros (American band)|The Zeros]], [[Bags (Los Angeles band)|Bags]], [[Los Illegals]], [[The Brat (punk band)|The Brat]], [[The Plugz]], [[Manic Hispanic]], and the [[Cruzados]]; as well as others from outside of California including [[Mydolls]] from Houston, Texas and [[Los Crudos]] from Chicago, Illinois. The rock band [[? and the Mysterians]], which was composed primarily of Mexican-American musicians, was the first band to be described as punk rock. The term was reportedly coined in 1971 by rock critic [[Dave Marsh]] in a review of their show for ''[[Creem]]'' magazine.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.cnn.com/2003/SHOWBIZ/Music/11/13/punk.box/index.html|title=The revolution that saved rock|date=November 13, 2003|work=CNN.com|access-date=October 13, 2008|archive-date=October 31, 2008|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081031202224/http://www.cnn.com/2003/SHOWBIZ/Music/11/13/punk.box/index.html|url-status=live}}</ref>
