The Quiroz Bros., Jose and Eduardo, native to Hayward, California, co-founded the influential rap group Darkroom Familia, becoming the first Latino rappers to emerge from Northern California. This groundbreaking duo went on to direct over a dozen music videos for their rap group, showcasing their unique style and creativity.
In the mid-1990s, they expanded their artistic horizons by producing two acclaimed graffiti art documentaries, Aerosol Warriors 1 & 2, which were featured in an exhibit at the prestigious New York Metropolitan Museum of Art. The success of these documentaries allowed them to finance and establish their own film production company, Pumpkin Patch Pictures.
Using their profits from their successful rap label, the Quiroz Bros. turned their passion for storytelling into a career in filmmaking. Their first two titles, the comedy "Paper Napkins" and the urban-action film "Penitentiary Chances," premiered at the San Antonio International Film Festival and SXSW-Alt in the late 1990s.
Since then, the writing, directing, and producing team has released over two dozen titles worldwide, spanning a range of genres from dramas to comedies to action and horror. Their films have been distributed through major retailers such as Blockbuster Video, Hollywood Video, Best Buy, Walmart, Target, Amazon, Netflix, Tubi, Vudu, iTunes, Google Play, PPV, and VOD.
The Quiroz Bros. continue to write and produce new content, with several screenplays currently making the rounds in Hollywood. Their creative passion has also led them to write their first novel, "For They Have Sinned," a suspenseful tale about a serial killer on the loose in San Francisco, set against the backdrop of the Bay Area.
Throughout their careers, the Quiroz Bros. have remained committed to their artistic vision, pushing the boundaries of their craft and leaving a lasting impact on the entertainment industry.
