The Suffers
Jose “Chapy” Luna is a percussionist born and raised in Houston, Texas. He grew up
surrounded by a family of musicians and began putting on shows in his grandmother’s garage
alongside his cousins, using buckets and broomsticks.
In the 19 years of his career, he has played countless styles of music including soul, ska, jazz,
and latin. He currently forms part of the 8 piece band, The Suffers, with whom he has performed in over 15 countries and has made a number of TV appearances including Late Night with David
Letterman, Jimmy Kimmel Live, The Daily Show with Trevor Noah, and NPR’s Tiny Desk.
In addition to professional accomplishments and talents, Chapy is well known throughout the
Houston community for his warmth, kindness and humility. When he is not on the road he
spends his time playing with local Houston legends and playing instruments with his two year
old daughter.
