Grupo Bronco takes the stage at Smart Financial Center in Sugar Land this weekend. The latin group is renowned for their iconic contributions to the genre of Regional Mexican music, Bronco promises an evening of unforgettable melodies and captivating performances.

Hailing from Apodaca, Nuevo León, Mexico, Bronco has carved a legendary status in the music industry with their unique blend of norteño, cumbia, and ranchera sounds. With a career spanning decades, Bronco has consistently delivered chart-topping hits and garnered a dedicated fan base that spans generations.

Tband began by the name of Los Broncos de Apodaca (The Broncos of Apodaca), formed and fronted by José Guadalupe Esparza, whose origins lay within a band by the name of "Cheyenne," which he had started with his childhood friends in secondary school. “I have always favored the names of Indians and although we never played professionally with that group, it helped us learn to play with cardboard boxes”.

Bronco - Quiéreme Como Te Quiero

Esparza once stated in an interview his beginnings in music, eventually morphing into Los Broncos de Apodaca. Esparza was joined by childhood friend Erick Garza and brothers Javier and José Luis "Choche" Villareal. Esparza was the vocalist and frontman, Javier was the main guitarist, Jose Luis played drums, and Erick on keyboards. Esparza occasionally took to percussion. At that time, they played Chicano music, whose rhythm is very similar to norteño music found in Northern Mexico, including Nuevo Leon, only that the organ is used instead of the accordion; it was considered to be a fashionable musical trend at that time, they also played cumbias and boleros.

As the lights will dim and anticipation fills the air at Smart Financial Center, fans of Bronco will eagerly await the start of latin music dating back to deccades.. The stage is set to showcase not just a musical performance but a journey through Bronco's extensive discography, featuring beloved classics and new hits that continue to captivate audiences worldwide.
