Selena Quintanilla was the face and voice of Selena y Los Dinos, but Selena's brother, A.B., was also a driving force behind her most famous songs. The bassist turned songwriter helped to pen several of her hit singles, including the well-known 'Como la Flor.' After Selena's untimely death in 1995, he continued to create music and carry on her legacy, which is told in Netflix's Selena: The Series.

Abraham Isaac Quintanilla III was born on Dec. 13, 1963, the first of Marcella and Abraham's kids. When A.B. was born, Abraham was still trying to make his music career with Los Dinos work. According to Joe Nick Patoski's book Selena, Abraham would often be gone on tour for so long that A.B. would forget he was his father. The band's popularity waned by 1969, so Abraham quit and settled down to raise A.B. and his second kid, Suzette. Though Abraham gave up his dreams of his own music career, A.B., Suzette, and later Selena all showed an aptitude for music, which led him to form the family band, Selena y Los Dinos. Rod Cannon, their teacher at Brazoswood High School in Texas, told Patoski that A.B. had 'an obvious gift for music as well as art' and was a 'talented, if somewhat introverted, guitarist in the jazz ensemble.'
