Mariachi / Mexican Band - Tequila Amigos

TEQUILA AMIGOS - MARIACHI / MEXICAN BAND

 

Tequila Amigos is a unique band. Although the band's instrumentation and sound is very traditional ( using the 'Mariachi style' duo trumpets, acoustic guitars and marimba ), Tequila Amigos is essentially a party band, specializing in playing a more wider and varied range of traditional, popular and contemporary Latin styles of dance music to cater for all musical tastes and age groups. The band members are multi-instrumental and very versatile. All music played is exclusively arranged for their particular 'line-up', allowing for instrument changes and performance interest as the show progresses - the main comment the band get from their audiences is that "they sound like eight musicians instead of three!"
