Agave Heritage Festival Kickoff with Flor de Toloache and Som do Sisal

Hotel Congress Plaza, 311 East Congress Street, Tucson, AZ, 85701 United States (map)

Friday April 19 7:30 show, 7 doors Adv $25, Day of $30

Experience a historic night of both culture and entertainment with the Latin Grammy Award Winning Flor de Toloache. Joined by Som do Sisal a 13 piece Brazilian Youth Orchestra that plays instruments made of repurposed Agave Sisal plants. This concert kicks off the Agave Heritage Festival Weekend in true Tucson style. As a special treat from the Agave Heritage Festival, the first 200 21+ concert goers are treated to a agave spirit sample from Mezcal Union.

The all-female mariachi group plays progressive and traditional mariachi fused with popular music.

Having performed at Coachella and a NPR Tiny Desk Concert, this Latin GRAMMY-winning, New York-based ensemble is one of the finest all-female mariachi groups on the planet. The group began as a trio named for the delirium-inducing Mexican flower used as a love potion for generations. As it has grown in notoriety, the band has expanded to as many as ten members depending on the setting, forming a truly global ensemble with musicians hailing from Mexico, Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic, Cuba, Australia, Colombia, Germany, Italy, and the United States. NPR’s Marisa Arbona-Ruiz said: “Flor de Toloache’s bilingual album Indestructible pushes the boundaries of mariachi music and its instruments through reimagined pop covers, originals and original collaborations.”

The New York ensemble and beloved press-darlings were invited to perform as special guests for the Grammy Museum’s inaugural Latin Music Gallery Exhibition ribbon-cutting ceremony also paying a special homage to Linda Ronstadt with a magical mariachi presentation at the 42nd Annual KENNEDY CENTER HONORS.
