Mariachi Sol de Mexico on Tour

When Mariachi Sol de Mexico comes to town, the 13-piece ensemble brings one of Mexico's most joyful and impressive cultural heritage with them. Founded in 1981 by Maestro Jos� Hern�ndez, Mariachi Sol's strings, horns, guitars, emotional vocals and colorful traditional outfits known as charro suits offer a rich live experience. With 19 albums to their name, they are steeped in a tradition that Hern�ndez keeps up-to-date with passion and professionalism.

The group's recent album Leyendas de Mi Pueblo (Legends of My Land) offers a Grammy-nominated deep dive into the music of Mexican composers Jorge Negrete, Pedro Infante and Miguel Aceves Mej�a. It also pays homage to legendary performers Alfredo Jim�nez, Javier Solis and Vicente Fernandez.

A Mariachi Sol de Mexico concert is a trip through Mexico punctuated by those cathartic, joyous yells known as gritos. And you don't need to speak Spanish to soak up the experience. After all, as Jos� Hern�ndez once put it, "you are coming to another kind of celebration. Instead of a party, you are coming to a fiesta."

About Mariachi Sol de Mexico

Mariachi's origins lie in the countryside, but it became the sound of urban Mexico at the beginning of the 20th century. Jos� Hern�ndez is a fifth-generation musician who started his own group after playing in his father's Mariachi los Galleros. Based in Los Angeles, Hern�ndez is a trumpeter, bandleader, producer, scholar and teacher. He founded the nonprofit Mariachi Heritage Society in 1991.

For Hern�ndez, mariachi is very much a living art � it's folk music that can assume symphonic proportions. Mariachi Sol performed on Linda Ronstadt's hit album Canciones de Mi Padre and worked with Willie Nelson, the Beach Boys and Jos� Feliciano. The group's music is also heard in the films Seabiscuit, American Me and Glory Road.

The performers in Mariachi Sol de Mexico sing about love, death, betrayal, politics, country life and revolutionary heroes in corridos, boleros, rancheras, huapangos, jarabes, polkas, waltzes and other traditional Mexican styles. The group is also renowned for their annual "Merry-Achi" Christmas concerts. In Mariachi Sol lies the beating heart of Mexico, and it's bringing the fiesta to you.

    Mariachi Sol de Mexico Christmas

    by Fancydancer on 12/22/23Balboa Theatre - San Diego

    Mariachi Sol de Mexico is the best and their Christmas concert is top notch. The whole group is very professional, very talented, and always look great. I like the variety of songs which include the regular Mexican songs but also the beautiful Christmas songs which they sing both in English and Spanish. If you want to get into the Christmas spirit this is one show that you don’t want to miss. This is the 4th time we’ve attended and look forward to it every time. Love it!

    by The big linguisa on 12/17/23Moore Theatre - Seattle

    Enjoyed the show. Should be a yearly tradition. I'm tired of traditional Christmas music. The mariachis made fresh and new. I also enjoyed the addition of the young high school musicians and dancers.

    Amazing Mariachi!

    by Mhernandez on 12/16/23Moore Theatre - Seattle

    This mariachi elevates this musical genre with their quality and professionalism. I was able to enjoy with my husband and two toddlers. The sound in general was perfect; not too loud or too low. Every member seems connected to what they are doing and do so with pride. I love that they involve local youth in their concerts, thanks for inspiring future generations!

    Marachi Sol de Mexico

    by Oly on 12/4/23Fox Performing Arts Center - Riverside

    I have seen this particular mariachi group 3 different times over the last 20 years. I'm always so impressed with these musicians, their versatility, their incredible ability to play many genres of music without sheet music in front of them! Their stupendous voices, everyone sings various songs but most all the wonderful mariachi music from old to new. Always an enjoyable evening of music!! I always look forward to seeing them.
