About Regional Mexican
Mexico is a big, diverse country. “Regional Mexican” is an umbrella term for the various forms of Mexican music including:
- Banda (brass bands with German polka influences)
- Mariachi/ranchera
- Norteño (Los Tigres del Norte)
- Tejano (Selena)
Banda, norteño and tejano have German and Czech polka and waltz influences from when Texas was Tejas, a northern state of Mexico.
Cumbia isn’t generally considered Regional Mexican, but Mexico has a cumbia tradition since Colombian Luis Carlos Meyer Castandet moved to Mexico and worked with Rafael de Paz the 1940s.
Regional Mexican music is the most popular Latin music in the United States.
