Giveaway closed!  Winner is Paola!

Growing up Latina, in a Mexican-American home, music was a way of life.  My dad was in a band when he was younger, and up to this day, I still have his maracas.  I remember the first time I ever actually paid attention to a song in Spanish.  My dad was driving me to school and Ana Gabriel started to play over the radio.  I listened and I fell in love with music.  As I grew up, I was taught how to play the organ (don’t laugh!) and I danced folklorico in high school. Little by little I love how my kids are starting to have an ear for music. Music is life.

On Saturday, June 29, 2013, the MARIACHI USA Festival, the premier mariachi music festival in the world, will rock the Hollywood Bowl stage for its 24th consecutive year.

Featuring top mariachi groups from the United States and Mexico, the MARIACHI USA Festival thrills audiences, young and old, and has elevated the musical art form to a new level of entertainment. This year’s amazing festival will feature:

• Mexico’s legendary Mariachi Vargas de Tecalitlan
• Grammy nominee, Mariachi Los Arrieros del Valle from Texas
• Mariachi Estrella de Jalisco
• Mariachi Los Reyes
• Grammy nominee, Trio Ellas
• Ranchera singer, Melinda
• 20 member, Mi Tierra Ballet Folklórico

Take a look:

This year’s show will feature a musical tribute to Mexico’s legendary composer and performer Jose Alfredo Jimenez.  Jimenez wrote over 1,000 songs, amongst the most famous of these: “El Rey”, “Ella” and “Si Nos Dejan” and also, this year marks the 40th anniversary of his passing but his songs have been immortalized by many singers since then.

Founded and created by artist/producer, Rodri J. Rodriguez, the festival gives generations a way to share in the musical tradition full of rich color and sounds of beautifully crafted music. Just from the look of the video, you can tell this is the place to be next week.

I’ve always wanted to go to this music festival and every year, I can never work it out to go.  This year, I get the opportunity to send one of my readers! I have a pair of tickets to give away!
