Good Mexican Fiesta music(: ??

Question

We are having a party at my family's mexican restaurant for some friends who are moving to alaska. What are some fun, upbeat fiesta-type songs that would be fun for the party? They don't have to have words, either. Just some fun baja/mexican stuff. And appropriate (seniors and stuff) [;

thanks much!

Answer 1

Play some good Fito Olivares music. You can't go wrong with Fito Olivares.

Mexican music isn't all just about mariachi and cumbia, we have good rock and pop musicians too; Alex Syntek, La cuca, Cafe Tacuba, Moenia, etc...

Answer 5

Definitly some mariachi music. Luis Miguel (Most famous mexican singer)  released a mariachi album like 3 years ago, its called "Mexico en la piel", download it, its great.

You can download too some "banda" music, like Banda El Recodo, Banda Limon or Valentin Elizalde. Thats some of the most traditional bands played in Mexico.

Dont get scared of the voice of Valentin Elizalde, we know he didnt sang well, thats why we like it lol.

BTW, manu chao its not even mexican and i hate him, you can download some of his songs too but thats not our traditional music.

Answer 6

You can play durangense music (which to me reminds me of polka music, lol) Some groups are K-paz de la sierra, Montez de durango and Tigres del Norte. Also, I like mexican cumbia music. Some good groups are Canaveral and Los Angeles de Charly.

Enjoy your fiesta!!!

Answer 7

Mariachi is the music of Mexico.

For vocals:

Linda Rondstad has a couple of CDs:

Canciones De Mi Padre

Mas Canciones

Songs sung in Spanish.  I have the first one - very nice album.  For link to her latest album and music samples at Amazon.com:

Any Mariachi songs would be perfect! Let me suggest you some: la bikina, mexico lindo y querido, cielito lindo, guadalajara, jalisco no te rajes, el mariachi loco, jarabe tapatio, mujeres divinas, el rey.
