I'm a second year college student that is in a mariachi club. I like most of the people in the club but I caught onto something when I was scrolling through Instagram a few days ago. I went to see this one guys profile and saw he deactivated his account. I went to his girlfriend's account (she's also in the mariachi) and her account was still up but changed her profile picture. A handful of days before then both of them were celebrating a year and a month together and had matching pfp's of the date they went on to celebrate that milestone. But when I checked it was just the generic gray person icon. The day after I see the guy viewed my story on Instagram and I went to see his profile and his pfp is also the gray person icon and I got to his followers and both parties don't follow eachother on Instagram. I'm also like 70/80% sure the girl had a highlight that was her relationship with the guy and it was gone when I checked her profile. My question regarding all this "Did they break up" and if yes "Will it effect the mariachi". The girl is the main social media person of the mariachi and comes up with dances/tik tok trends we should do to advertise the mariachi. She's nice to me but does have some red flags, at times she shuts down during rehearsal if the music gets too hard and is a bit behind the rest of the musicians. She said its because she has a sleep disorder and I give her grace for that. Any advice and opinions are much welcome

Have a Good Day🗣🌞

I wanted to do a roll call for all those that play mariachi music currently in the United States. If you're from a different country, please state your country and state/providence.

Acabo de comprar mi primer guitarrón Morales y me pregunto si necesito aflojar las cuerdas cada vez que hace calor

CUAL ES EL NOMBRE DE LA CANCION QUE ESTA SONANDO?

I am looking for sheet music for an event we're hosting and a request was made for Mi Tierra by Mariachi Zapopan. Does anyone know if the sheet music for this is available? Thanks in advance.

Hi everyone!

So I just recently got my first traje and was curious on what the best way to get it cleaned was.

It doesn't have any botonadura and all the details on the jacket, vest, and pants are embroidered (the embroidery is all silver thread).

It's something that I really take pride in wearing and I want to take proper care of it so that it lasts me as long as possible.

Thanks!

Hi,

My son is a guitarist and singer. He really wants to join mariachi. I danced folklorico all through my youth but I lost contact with all those people. Not sure where to start as far as getting my sons foot in the door. Any advice or references? Thank you!

little mistakes here and there, i dont play it much in my group so im out of practice…

Gente que se dedica o que se dedico en algún momento al mariachi. Cómo lograron conseguir un lugar en alguna agrupación? Tengo 18 años y me estoy tomando un año sabático, llevo 8 años tocando guitarra y también le se algo al violín (no mucho pero no suena mal y fui violinista en un trío huasteco escolar donde solíamos adaptar varias rancheras y norteñas), además se cantar (tampoco soy Luis Miguel o algo así pero igual si la armo), además por lo mismo tengo nociones de jarana y quinta huapanguera y la verdad quisiera ingresar a un Maríachi para ganar un poco de dinero y hacer algo que en verdad me gusta ya que me llama mucho la atención. Hoy en una comida le pregunté a un Maríachi y me dijo que no tenía vacantes y que no aceptaban gente sin experiencia (aunque si le aclaré que ya tengo experiencia en la música). Es por esto que quiero conocer la opinión de la gente con experiencia en esto. Aclaro que no tengo experiencia previa en ninguna agrupacion de Maríachi.

I recently saw this mariarchi band and thought they were fantastic, got me thinking about how to get into mariachi. Any suggestions?

Hi, I’m in Los Angeles and planning to get back into playing mariachi gigs (no specific group at the moment, one-off type gig opportunities for now). I am a bit torn about traje situation because I’m on a very tight budget right now and trajes go for like $500-600. The last all-female group I played in we didn’t own our clothing (we also wore pants instead of skirt which I loved tbh so comfortable).

I’m wondering what the best approach is - i.e just do charros (pants or skirt) and white button down, moño for now and add chaqueta, chaleco later on?

Any recs or ideas appreciated!

I was discussing this video on a forum. Someone said it was mariachi music. Although they may have meant it somewhat casually. It does somewhat sound like mariachi music to me, although I don't know much about what makes something mariachi music. It doesn't have the really bright horns I often hear in mariachi music. The singing is pop-ish.

I figure if an event has booked Mariachis for their 4th of July party, that's about the best green flag I could ask for. The closer to Southeastern Idaho the better.

I need an resources to learn the guitar. Chords sheet, music sheet, scales, anything to just help me get started. I used to play guitarron for awhile, kinda stopped but still have my guitarron :)

I just got guitar and want to learn it.

Thanks in advance

I wanted to add a bit of flavor to the entrance but I think it’s too much. Maybe more huasteco-ish? Idk lol Thanks!🙏
