🎶 About the Band
Mariachi Los Gavilanes brings centuries of musical tradition to life — with soaring vocals, crisp instrumentation, and the kind of presence that fills a space before the first note is played. Based in Texas and performing statewide, this professional mariachi ensemble is known for their elegance, energy, and emotionally resonant performances.
Dressed in classic trajes de charro and performing entirely live, Los Gavilanes captures the timeless beauty of traditional mariachi with a modern polish. Their lineup features violins, trumpets, guitarrón, vihuela, and guitar — with lead and harmony vocals that move from celebratory to deeply soulful in a single phrase.
Their repertoire spans beloved rancheras, sones, boleros, and Mexican waltzes: often including songs like Cielito Lindo, Volver Volver, El Rey, and La Negra. But what sets them apart is their artistry: each arrangement is treated with respect, passion, and technical excellence.
Mariachi Los Gavilanes has performed for civic events, cultural festivals, private celebrations, and dignitaries across Texas. At Come and Take It, they bring heritage to the heart of Gonzales — where audiences of all ages are invited to tap their feet, sing along, and celebrate the enduring joy of mariachi music.
