About this Artist

In just ten years, Mariachi Femenil Nuevo Tecalitán from Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico have established their reputation as one of the world’s best, sharing stages with Vicente Fernández, Marc Anthony, Mariachi Vargas de Tecalitlán, and Joan Sebastian, among others. The group was founded by Ángel Martinez, director of Mariachi Nuevo Tecalitlán, who visited Santa Barbara with ¡Viva el Arte de Santa Bárbara! in 2013. Under the direction of Lupita Martinez, these 11 young women have performed at festivals throughout Mexico and the United States, and even travelled to London in 2010.
