Música en la Plaza – Mariachi Garibaldi de Jaime Cuéllar

Mariachi Garibaldi de Jaime Cuéllar has truly become America’s Mariachi! First: multi-styling videos with pop sensation Camila Cabello! Second: a viral “Jacket Exchange” with Los Angeles Dodgers relief pitcher Joe Kelly, who proudly wore it to the White House to meet Joe Biden! With a 30-year history of shows that delight audiences at both intimate venues and major theaters throughout the U.S. and Mexico, the ensemble tours its own show, Leyendas de Mexico/Legends of Mexico, while also collaborating with a Who’s Who of Mexican artists including Aida Cuevas, Pedro Fernandez, Ana Barbara and Angela Aguilar. Most recently Mariachi Garibaldi were featured performers for Camila Cabello’s Tiny Desk concert performing “La Buena Vida,” truly displaying that mariachi music transcends across all platforms. A production in 2017 of “Tale as Old as Time” from Disney’s Beauty and the Beast for the “mitú” network, went viral with over 16 million views! Avid proponents of music education, the group teaches mariachi for all ages at their own school for Mexican Arts, Cue Music Inc. (https://www.cuemusicinc.com/).
