The year may be coming to an end, but that doesn’t mean Luis Miguel‘s tour is.
After a month-long tour in South America, Miguel began the North American leg of the Luis Miguel 2023-24 concert tour on September 15, 2023, in Las Vegas at Dolby Live.
As he finishes off his 2023 leg this month, the “La Incondicional” singer is also preparing to welcome 2024 with more tour dates. Miguel will be performing on New Year’s Eve to ring in the new year before heading off to the Dominican Republic in mid-January.
Miguel is scheduled to stay in Latin America for the second leg of his tour until the end of March and is set to return to North America in April, where he will be performing in Seattle.

Christian Nodal decided to celebrate the music of his country in a special way. In honor of Mexican Independence Day on Sept. 14, the música Mexicana star released his new EP México En Mi Voz. On the project, Nodal takes on mariachi classics by late Mexican icons Vicente Fernández and Juan Gabriel.
“I love my culture,” he says over Zoom. “I’m very proud of my country and the music from there. In this era of música Mexicana, there are a lot of different styles coming out that are being played around the world.

“To make a dream come true, the first requirement is a great capacity to dream; the second is persistence.” This quote from civil rights activist Cesar Chavez embodies the protagonists’ goals and motivations in Alejandra Vasquez and Sam Osborn’s Going Varsity in Mariachi. Though audiences witness the statement only during a quick B-roll shot in the opening minutes, its subtle, bold presence encapsulates the American dream and U.S. immigrant experience in a snapshot.
This year’s Jonathan Oppenheim Editing Award recipient explores the world of competitive mariachi in Texas’s high school system through the lens of the 2021-22 Edinburg North High School campaign, located in the Rio Grande Valley near the United States-Mexico border. The wise-and-fun band director Abel Acuña has led the mariachi band program to be one of the state’s highest-ranked division leaders in each of his 11 years. Yet, despite the accomplishment, the school...

An engaging, if straightforward, invitation into the realm of competitive mariachi bands in Texas high schools, the documentary feature “Going Varsity in Mariachi” introduces us to the most victorious of them all, Mariachi Nuevo Santander from Roma High School. An exhilarating taste of their exceptional renditions comes halfway through the film’s runtime, but while they often rank far above their competition, here, they are only a secondary voice.
Since an underdog story always appeals to our empathy for those who overcome hurdles to attain seemingly out-of-reach goals, co-directors Sam Osborn and Alejandra Vasquez instead spotlight the Mariachi Oro from Edinburgh North High School in the Rio Grande Valley.
In Spanglish, the director of this mariachi, Abel Acuña, patiently instructs the kids without a musical background — from a low-income community, in an underfunded school — on how to play mariachi staples such as “Volver, Volver,” “Mexico Lindo y Querido” or those by songwriter Jose Alfredo Jiménez,...

In Mexican culture, when someone is singing or playing a song that tugs hearts or provokes tears, the instinctive reaction is to let out a prideful, ebullient shout called a grito. The adlib is at the core of age-old mariachi classics from legendary Spanish-language vocalists like Pedro Infante, José Alfredo Jiménez and Vicente Fernandez, to name a few.
The ensemble-styled genre has long been categorized as traditional music, often heard at family parties or special events, but “Going Varsity in Mariachi,” a production by Osmosis Films, Embeleco Unlimited, Impact Partners and Fifth Season that premieres at the Sundance Film Festival today (Jan. 22), sets out to prove the opposite. From the producer team of James Lawler, Luis A. Miranda, Jr. and Julia Pontecorvo, “Going Varsity in Mariachi” follows the talented 20-member group of high school students who make up Edinburg North’s Mariachi Oro 2021-22 team in Texas. The band, under-resourced and riddled with post-pandemic obstacles,...

For more than three decades, Spanish rock legend Enrique Bunbury has spun fantastic stories of dark fantasy and probed the depths of universal human emotions through his songs. Yet in his disquieting and introspective 10th studio album, Posible, he delves into the many alternate worlds that exist within himself.
“Other versions of yourself exist, whether that’s being a better husband, better father, or better lover,” he says of his new album, out Friday. “Those options torture me, and they give me hope.”

Hard-drinking, pistol-packing, taboo-breaking singer of Mexican rancheras, revolutionary ballads and tangos
Gut-wrenching renditions of Mexican popular classics combined with a taboo-breaking personality and an iron liver ensured that Chavela Vargas, who has died aged 93, lived her own legend to the full. Vargas's raw, rasping voice and intimate arrangements stripped down well-known rancheras, boleros, revolutionary ballads and tangos to leave them as haunting laments, punctuated by waves of tenderness and bitter irony.
In the 1990s, the Spanish film-maker Pedro Almodóvar, whom Vargas described as her "soulmate", included her music in his films and championed her work, thus ensuring that she will be remembered not only as a tequila-soaked cantina singer from Latin America, but also an international artist who could sell out the most formal venues. "Chavela Vargas turned abandon and desolation into a cathedral within which we all fit," Almodóvar wrote after her death. "She emerged reconciled with the errors...
