It’s Wednesday, baby, and we are halfway through our week of celebrating some of our favorite performances from last week’s KUTX Live at Scholz Garten, where over 2,000 music fans local and visiting came and celebrated with us.

“Contigo Quiero Todo” or “I Want Everything With You,” is one of Edgar Alejandro’s many captivating love songs. The L.A. musician by way of Guadalajara, Mexico was born into a family of mariachis, started composing his own music at thirteen, and now at twenty-three, his blend of mariachi, bossa nova, salsa, and other Latin music genres is being shared virally on platforms like TikTok and streamed over 100,000 times a month on Spotify.

And while that would be exciting for any emerging artist, these stats are doubly affirming to Alejandro’s mission to bring mariachi to the mainstream outside of Latin America. He brought this mission to Scholz Garten where he had an audience of hundreds positively captivated.
