Description
Latin GRAMMY Nominees Mariachi Flor de Toloache made New York City history as its’ first and only all-women mariachi band. Reminiscent of the early days of mariachi the group started as a trio, playing the Harp, Violin and Vihuela, today they perform as a full mariachi ensemble. While they work to preserve the centuries old tradition of Mariachi, inevitably their special blend of the traditional with the modern pushes the boundaries of the genre and brings Mariachi music to places it has never been.
Their critically acclaimed, self-titled debut album received a Latin GRAMMY nomination for “Best Ranchera Album” of 2015. Their live performances were praised by Rolling Stone, The New Yorker, GQ Magazine, and The New York Timesamongst many media outlets.
