Cinco de Mayo is seen as a day to celebrate the culture, achievements, and experiences of people with a Mexican background. What a better way to celebrate diversity than with a bunch of Herb Alpert and The Tijuana Brass clones.
“Tijuana is a spectacle, a garish border town. This music inside is its fantasy soundtrack, an imaginary postcard, Mexico converted into pop songs handmade for US ears out of a century’s residue of border romance” (from transnational encounters – music and performance at the US-Mexico border by Alejandro L. Madrid)
