Mariachi El Bronx are kicking off the new year with another new song from their forthcoming album Mariachi El Bronx IV, due February 13 via ATO. ‘Bandoleros’ is the instantly catchy anthem you’d want from Mariachi El Bronx.
“Bandoleros” offers another taste of the band’s first release in over a decade – a 12-song collection that honors the rich Hispanic music and culture integral to Los Angeles while chronicling gamblers, former playboys, warriors, and lovers navigating the weight of modern existence.
The video was directed by the legendary LA street photographer, director, and longtime friend of Mariachi El Bronx Estevan Oriol (Cypress Hill, Snoop Dogg, Eminem, Blink 182). “I’ve been working with these guys for years and this version of the band is unstoppable,” he says. “I’m proud to of been given creative freedom to match their massive sound with this video that visually matches the GIANT they’ve become.’”
The band adds, “we’ve been working with Estevan since the early 2000’s. His talent and style is unmatched. Over the years we’ve become friends so linking up for the Bandoleros video was a no brainer.”
