Performing at the Texas State Capitol with Mariachi Águilas de UNT was an unforgettable honor that felt like a full-circle moment in my musical journey. Standing on such a historic stage and sharing my culture’s rich traditions was humbling and exhilarating. It was more than just a performance; it was a return to my roots, a tribute to the passion that first drew me to music, and a reminder that mariachi has the power to connect, inspire, and celebrate heritage. The echoes of trumpets, violins, and harmonized voices filled the grand halls, carrying the soul of Mexico into the heart of Texas. At that moment, I wasn’t just playing music—I was honoring a legacy, and I couldn’t be prouder.
