Prayers is a Chicano electronic rock duo founded in 2013 by Rafael Reyes and Dave Parley. Prayers are the first musicians/artists to use the term Cholo goth to define their genre of music which lyrically explores the harsh realities of gang and street life over throbbing beats and swirling synthesizers.
Prayers is influenced by Christian Death, Depeche Mode, Bauhaus, Pet Shop Boys and other Gothic rock and dark 80s music, as well as by Reyes’ life as gang member in the Sherman Grant Hill Park 27 gang, one of San Diego’s oldest gangs, also known as Sherman 27. He was jumped into the gang as a teenager.Prayers’ music, lyrics and image breaks down stereotypes within the Goth and Cholo subcultures.
