Moises Lopez Jr. is the singer for Scarlett O'Hara, an active rock band made up of Spanish-speaking Mexican Americans. Born in Weslaco, Texas, the 31-year-old vocalist is a first-generation Mexican American from his father’s side and also proudly represents the LGBTQ+ community as a gay hard rock frontman. The band originally formed in 2008 and helped spearhead a local subgenre known as “South Texas Metalcore.” In addition to Lopez Jr., Scarlett O'Hara features Arnie Bernal on drums, Logan Burns on the guitar and Alek Samodouroff on bass. Their 2021 singles “Friction” and “Obsessive” were both big successes for the group as they received a great deal of airplay on the radio and landed on several Billboard charts. Their latest single, “Witching Hour,” was released today — the video can be viewed below. Given his unique background and the topic of Scarlett O'Hara’s latest single “Witching Hour,” we asked Lopez to share his experience growing up as a minority trying to make it in rock music and why sharing songs focused on mental health is so important to him. Head below to see Lopez’s words, but first be sure to check out “Witching Hour.” “,”podInfo”:{“type”:”tag”,”name”:”p”,”attribs”:{“dangerouslySetInnerHTML”:{“__html”:”Moises Lopez Jr. is the singer for Scarlett O'Hara, an active rock band made up of Spanish-speaking Mexican Americans.

We were heading to Guitar Center, and I remember struggling to just come out and say it. My heart started to race so to ease my anxiety, I made it into a bit of a guessing game. His first guess was assuming I had a girl I was crushing on. I replied, “You are so far from the answer you could develop frostbite.” Once we bought our guitar strings we headed back to my house. That was when I took a deep breath and told him. My words were “I am not too sure about my sexuality, but I think I like guys. No, actually I know that I like guys.” At that moment he smiled at me and said, “Oh bro you're fine, don't even worry about it.” I didn't really know how to react because it was not what I had braced myself for.

From a young age, I think music was always something I dreamt of pursuing. I remember singing along to Selena songs while I was still in diapers. My parents used to be migrant workers, so I always attended different schools and was around a very diverse group of kids. I never originally wanted to be a frontman because I was shy of speaking but singers were difficult to come by in our area so I ended up watching YouTube videos on how to do it and I picked it up. The only gay icons in rock I knew of were Rob Halford and Freddie Mercury.

One of my idols when I first started singing was definitely Breaking Benjamin. Lead singer and guitarist Ben Burnley was that guy I wanted to be, but he looked absolutely nothing like me.

Currently, I don't think LGBTQ or minorities are shunned from rock and metal, but I don't think it's really encouraging or promoting them to join either. I don't think there are enough diverse people in the rock scene. That’s something I’ve discovered first-hand during my time in Scarlett O’Hara.

People of different backgrounds have individual perspectives to bring to the table, which is one reason why I think diversity is so important. You go into a Latino household, white, Black, Asian, Indian, etc., and I guarantee you they will all cook you a meal differently. I feel the same goes for rock music. Diversity leads to more learning because we get to understand our differences in our cultures. This leads to a larger variety of expressions in writing, in sounds, in performances and even in image.
