Filmed at the Foro Sol in Mexico City on 15 March 2020, during the Vive Latino festival, this live concert presents Los Tucanes de Tijuana, one of the most popular groups in Mexican norteño music. Founded in Tijuana in 1987, the band led by Mario Quintero has built a vast repertoire of corridos and cumbias, driven by accordion, bajo sexto and stories rooted in border life. Their appearance at Vive Latino, a festival historically associated with rock, made a strong impression: before a huge crowd, the group had an entire stadium singing, a symbol of regional music’s recognition by a young, urban audience. The recording conveys the scale of the moment and the relentless dance mechanics of these songs. This roughly 65-minute full concert runs through classics such as “El Tucanazo” and “La Chica Sexy.” For lovers of Latin music, this 2020 live set is a notable document of norteño’s new place in Mexican popular culture.
