LOS CARAJOS
9-PIECE MARIACHI PUNK ROCK BAND
Taking classic Mariachi anthems and firing them up with raw punk rock velocity, blazing horn fanfares, and infectious accordion hooks.
Las Vegas
Mariachi Punk Rock
Born in Las Vegas and forged over the last seven years, Los Carajos is a one-of-a-kind Mariachi Punk Rock band turning timeless tradition into a full-volume celebration. The concept is simple—and sacred: we take classic Mariachi songs you already know, make them our own, and never change the lyrics. Every word stays intact, honoring the originals while the energy hits with a packed show and people singing every chorus.
A nine-piece powerhouse with an explosive horn section and a dynamic female accordion player, Stephanie, Los Carajos delivers a sound that’s as bold as it is infectious. Our shows are a bridge between generations—young and old singing, shouting, dancing, and smiling through every chorus. You don’t have to speak Spanish to feel it. Chances are you’ve heard these classics before… you’ve just never heard them like this.
After years of lighting up stages across Las Vegas and up and down the West Coast, we’ve had the pleasure of sharing bills with some of the biggest names in punk rock. The band currently has a six-song EP available on Spotify and iTunes, with a 12-song full-length album set for release in April 2026—continuing our mission of honoring the classics while pushing them louder, faster, and further than ever before.
