Mariachi los Camperos

los Camperos de Nati Cano is a Grammy Award-winning Los Angeles-based mariachi ensemble which was formerly led by Natividad "Nati" Cano.[1]

History

In 1950, Nati Cano joined a mariachi band in the city of Mexicali, Baja California, as an arranger.[1] Cano was younger than any of the other members at the time.[1] The group later relocated to Los Angeles, California based out of a restaurant Nati founded as well, named "La Fonda de Los Camperos."[1] Cano renamed the band, Mariachi los Camperos, meaning Countrymen.[1]

The ensemble was one of four mariachis that collaborated on Linda Ronstadt’s 1987 milestone album, Canciones de Mi Padre.[1] They also appear on Ronstadt’s sequel album, Mas Canciones, which was released in 1992, and toured with the singer nationwide.[1]

Members

Nati Cano died October 3, 2014 due to declining health, passing on the group to the current musical director, Jesus "Chuy" Guzman.[1]

Cuco Del Cid died in January 2018.[2]


Former Member Martin C. Padilla from El Paso,Texas, also died in January 2019.

gollark: I don't hear people saying "microprocessor" much now, but it typically refers to the actual CPU bit.
