Flor De Toloache

Saturday, March 5, 2022 at 8:00pm at Emelin Theatre

The Emelin is thrilled to welcome back the incredible Flor de Toloache! Having performed at Coachella and in an 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  UnitedStates.  Their highly anticipated new album  Indestructible, produced by  11-time  Grammy-winner  Rafa  Sardina  (Stevie  Wonder,  Lady  Gaga,  Rodrigo y  Gabriela, among others), premiered via NPR’s “First Listen,” where NPR’s Marisa Arbona-Ruiz said, “Flor de Toloache’s new bilingual album Indestructible pushes the boundaries of mariachi music and its instruments through reimagined pop covers, originals and original collaborations. Indestructible follows  Flor de  Toloache’s critically-acclaimed and  Latin  GRAMMY Award-winning sophomore release, 2017’s Las Caras Lindas. 

Announced as one of the official selection of WOMEX 2019, the world’s biggest showcase for world music, Flor de Toloache performed over 100 shows in 2019, touring Japan for the first time! The New York ensemble and beloved press darlings were also invited in 2019 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.
