Formed in the spring of 2001, Mariachi Femenil Flores Mexicanas has established itself as the premier all-female group of the Southwest captivating audiences from all over the world. The versatility of the mariachi is reflected in a wide-ranging repertoire that includes boleros, huapangos, corridos, sones and cumbias. All-female groups are a recent innovation in mariachi; however, Flores Mexicanas retain the traditional style of their music. Their rich sound and inspiring musicianship is the product of each member’s discipline, experience, and passion promoting a strong yet elegant statement not typically seen in this traditionally male-dominated art form. Born of a region noted for its cultural diversity, the all-female ensemble continues to redefine the genre and break new ground in the United States.
Actively involved in their hometown community, Flores Mexicanas enjoy donating their time for church functions, city celebrations, teaching the youth and are proud to promote causes such as women’s health awareness. Mariachi Femenil Flores Mexicanas is the new face of the Passionately Pink for the Cure campaign sponsored by the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Society. They were also featured in the Spotlight 2006 benefit for the Border AIDS Partnership hosted by film star Josh Lucas.
Currently, Las Flores Mexicanas host the annual Mariachi Conference in Silver City, NM which encompasses a week of instruction for students and two grand concerts culminating in a Sunday mariachi mass. They are regular headliners at “Mariachi Sundays” and “The Parque Festival” for the Las Cruces International Mariachi Conference. The Mariachi Craze in El Paso, TX also regularly features these women in its annual showcase.
Flores Mexicanas have accompanied Grammy-winning Native-American vocalist Yolanda Martinez and shared the stage with world –renowned mariachi groups such as Mariachi Vargas, Mariachi Los Camperos De Nati Cano, amongst others. They have performed in venues such as the Chamizal National Memorial Theater, Abraham Chavez Theater, the Historical Plaza Theater in El Paso, TX and the Pan American Center in Las Cruces, NM among others. The most recent engagement for the group was their Spring Tour in 2007 with international recording artist Lila Downs.
Under the direction of Lilly Sanchez, Mariachi Flores Mexicanas has broken barriers in this male-dominated genre and are striving to achieve a solid and respected position for female mariachis in the musical world.
