La Adictiva Banda San Jose De Mesillas on Tour
La Adictiva Banda San Jose de Mesillas is a loud, proud wind band rich with Sinaloan flavor. Since 1990, Adictiva's 15-plus players have been making a mighty noise with clarinets, trumpets, tubas, drums and singers. Members may come and go, but Adictiva has only grown more popular: The video for their 2017 single "Después de ti ¿Quién" ("After You, Who?") has been viewed more than 550 million times.
Formed in the town of Mesillas, within the Sinaloan municipality of Concordia, on May 19 — patron saint San Jose's day — La Banda San Jose de Mesillas was a regional phenomenon for several years. In 2009, they added "adictiva" to their name after a radio programmer used it to describe their lively romantic take on the classic Sinaloan sound, confirmed on their album Corridos Adictivos.
"I can compare banda music with an orchestra without any problem," former Adictiva singer Carlos Sarabia has said. Their sound contrasts clarinets with brass, highlights inventive conversations between the full band and isolated instrument groups, and spices up vocals with clever counter-melodies. In short, Adictiva swings, playing music that's great for drinking and dancing while nurturing a proud Mexican cultural tradition.
Adictiva took a great leap forward when it was signed to Sony in 2009 and released Vida Sinaloense (Sinaloan Life) the following year. Audiences in both northern Mexico and the southwestern United States began dancing to hit singles like "Te amo y te amo" ("I Love You and I Love You"), "Nada iguales" ("Not the Same") and "El pasado es pasado" ("The Past Is Past") that were crooned by Claudio Alcaraz, the band's lead vocalist from 2003 to 2013.
Awards and more hits followed. The release of the singles "Un fin en Culiacán" (An End in Culiacán), "Hombre libre" (Free Man), and "Después de ti ¿Quién," from the album Disfruté Engañarte (I Enjoyed Deceiving You) made 2014 an especially prosperous year for the group.
Guillermo "Memo" Garza took over as lead vocalist after Sarabia departed in 2018. La Adictiva Banda San Jose de Mesillas will continue to tour and thrive, bringing its popular strain of Sinaloan magic to the people.

The night was perfect loved the venue and the Banda La Adictiva was super great they sang nonstop all of their hits!❤ Great Show!!
La Addictiva really knows how to put on a show. They were amazing. I love how they played all there love music but mixed in some of their up best music to mix it up. They were just great.
So the concert was just amazing! Everything about the event was just unforgettable. Only downside were the restrooms. The line was just long. I had to hold it so I wouldn’t lose the show.
Awesome show, great seats. Getting in and out of the forum is very easy as well.
Loved la addictiva. Hopefully they have a concert where only they sing
Music , and sound were great. One thing i didnt like at all the poor m/c. Very anoying voices and didnt understood a word they were saying..
Great show great Banda, would love to go see more concerts there
Adicitiva was incredibly amazing, I had seen them in Las Vegas, went to Rohnert CA and will go to LA October 13 to see them once again, what made me very unhappy was to know I traveled to see my 3 top favorites and Cuisillos did not Show up, I bought my tickets taking them in consideration and taddaaa NVM they are not part of the Show WTH, Primavera was also great and sounds wonderful but It was very disappointing not to see what I thought I paid for
