Jarabe Mexicano

Jarabe Mexicano is back at the Blue Sage to party! Jarabe Mexicano captures the nostalgic spirit of their border roots with their charismatic brand of "Bordeño-Soul," which honors the musical tastes and cultural influences of its members. Jarabe, which translates to “concoction,” highlights the eclectic mix of genres they perform ranging from Mexican Folk, Rock & Roll, and Norteño/Tex-Mex to Latin Rock, Trío Romántico, and popular Cumbia. Their traditional Mariachi string instruments and Norteño-inspired drums complement dramatic vocals in English, Spanish, and Spanglish, and shows how this multi-generational ensemble embraces change without forgetting the past. ​As educators, cultural ambassadors and advocates for the arts, Jarabe Mexicano is “thought-provoking, heartfelt, and engaging,” the Vilar Performing Arts Center raves. Both their concerts, entitled “Fiesta En Familia,” and their educational outreach program “Día de los Muertos: A Celebration of Life” aim to create a deeper and more inclusive sense of family and community, with a special commitment to underserved groups. Jarabe has also shared the stage with guitarist and composer Louie Pérez of Los Lobos and has opened for internationally renowned acts like Gaby Moreno and La Santa Cecilia. The band is currently working on their upcoming third album, while their EP "Semillas" as well as their self-titled album "Jarabe Mexicano'' can be found on all digital streaming platforms.
