Música Mexicana superstar Carín León will take the stage at the Rose Bows on May 24, leading a historic lineup that marks the first-ever Latin music concert at the iconic venue.
Joining him will be global sensation Becky G, the innovative Edición Especial, and rising star DannyLux, promising an unforgettable night that celebrates the growing influence of Latin music on the global stage.
Carín León, fresh from his Grammy win for “Best Música Mexicana Album” with Boca Chueca Vol. 1, stands at the forefront of this cultural milestone.
Known for his fusion of música mexicana with country elements, León has captured the hearts of fans on both sides of the border, selling out major venues and earning critical acclaim for his unique sound.
“I feel very proud to be a pioneer in bringing regional Mexican music to this iconic place. Everything that has happened with our genre is incredible and the presence that México has today in global music. This is just an example of what our country has prepared for the future, and we are moving forward with firm steps! I’m excited to see how Mexican music is being recognized, and for me, it’s an honor to represent it with respect, always going all out,” León shared. His words reflect not only his personal pride but also the genre’s rapid ascension on the international stage.
The event is made even more significant by the presence of multiplatinum global superstar Becky G, whose albums ESQUINAS and ENCUENTROS are vibrant celebrations of her Mexican-American heritage. These works have not only broken records but also deepened her cultural influence, with standout hits like the Latin GRAMMY-nominated POR EL CONTRARIO.
“As a proud Chicana born and raised in Inglewood, I’m beyond excited to be part of this historic moment where música mexicana is included for the first time. Bringing my music and culture with me everywhere I go means everything, but there’s something incredibly special about performing música mexicana in LA. I can’t wait to go out there and celebrate with my people,” Becky G reflected, highlighting her deep connection to the city and her role in advancing cultural representation.
Adding to the vibrant lineup is Edición Especial, fresh off their highly successful Segunda Edición tour with multiple sold-out dates. Known for their dynamic sound, they blend traditional rhythms with modern influences from Culicán, Sinaloa, creating a style that is both innovative and deeply rooted in cultural tradition. Their performance at Brookside will further showcase the diversity and evolution of música mexicana.
Also taking the stage is DannyLux, a rising star celebrated for his heartfelt lyrics and genre-defying style that fuses classic Mexican sounds with alternative rock influences. His innovative approach has earned him critical acclaim and a growing global fanbase, solidifying his place as one of the most exciting new voices in Latin music today.
Brookside at The Rose Bowl, known for hosting major Goldenvoice festivals like Just Like Heaven and Cruel World, is setting a new standard with its first Latin music event. Goldenvoice, the legendary promoter behind Coachella and Stagecoach, orchestrates this milestone, marking a cultural shift for the venue.
“Brookside at the Rose Bowl has always been a special place for Goldenvoice. We’ve been fortunate to be a part of each of these artists’ journeys and wanted to bring it all together to showcase the best of Musica Mexicana. It’s a great feeling to have the Latin community come together at such an iconic space,” a Goldenvoice representative stated, emphasizing their commitment to celebrating Latin culture and supporting its artists.
The night promises to be more than just a concert; it’s a cultural celebration of música mexicana’s growing influence in global music. By bringing together such a dynamic lineup at one of Los Angeles’ most iconic venues, the event underscores the historical and cultural significance of Latin music’s evolution. It symbolizes a new era of representation and recognition, reflecting a broader acceptance and celebration of Latin American cultural identity.
