Danny talks with Chris Reza - The Mariachi singing LAPD Detective - about his upbringing in East Los Angeles, why Chris joined a career in law enforcement, how he used music to create bonds with the community and the incarcerated, his view/perspective of how Los Angeles has changed over the past 20 years, policing now vs when he first started, how Chris initially kept music and policing separate until there was no choice but to combine the two, the differences between nerves within law enforcement and singing, how Chris is connected with our former podcast guest Gil Carrillo, Chris’s hit song “El Servidor” that tells his life story as a Mexican-American kid who grew up to serve his community while embracing his heritage, Chris’s biggest influences in music, how important his vocal coach has been to his success, and how grateful/humbled he is to have the responsibility to be “El Servidor”.

Chris is in concert Sunday March 27th, 2022 at The Covina Center for the Performing Arts. An Evening of Mariachi and Community…and a couple of drinks. Doors open at 5pm. Link below.
