Mariachi Las Adelitas UK

Hailing from Mexico, Cuba, Colombia, Italy and the U.K this unique 7 piece band was formed in 2013 out of the desire to shatter stereotypes within this genre. In 2022 they played at GLASTONBURY (Leftfield Stage) and at WOMAD (BBC Charlie Gillett stage). They were interviewed by Clive Anderson and played their latest single, "Intro." live on BBC Radio 4 in May 2023. They are favourites of Cerys Matthews (BBC Radio6/ BBC Radio4), who interviewed them twice on the UK's most popular radio show, and premiered their versions of Back to Black (Huapango), El Toro Relajo in 2021 and Viva Mexico in 2022. They played at Women’s Mariachi Festival in L.A, California in 2018 where they also played live on both Univision and Telemundo TV channels. Salma Hayek sang with them at her private birthday celebration in 2019! They have played at countless festivals and venues as diverse as the British museum, the Camden Roundhouse, La Linea festival, Songlines Encounters Festival, Victorious Festival, Vamos festival, the 02 Forum supporting Calexico and much more. They recently played the Festival international del Mariachi y la Charreria in Guadalajara, Mexico. Each member is a professional instrumentalist, with no less than three lead vocalists in the group. Mariachi classics are included in their repertoire, with original compositions and a few beautiful arrangements of classics in English arranged in authentic mariachi style, making them truly versatile.
