Los Tucanes de Tijuana is a Mexican band founded on April 13, 1987, by Mario Quintero Lara and a group of friends in the City of Tijuana, Baja California, Mexico. The members began their musical career by playing in nightclubs. They are by far the global ambassadors of Norteña music and Narcocorrido ballads (Drug-praising ballads) ballads.[citation needed]

The Band

Their fast paced and energizing music, such as El Tucanazo, has attracted the attention of the Ministry of Tourism for the Republic of Mexico which, through its advertising agency, asked Mario Quintero Lara to pen a song, "Mexico Es Tu Casa" ("Mexico Is Your Home"), to promote tourism in Mexico. They are also the first Regional Mexican Norteño band to win an international film award receiving an Angel Film Award at the Monaco International Film Festival in November 2007 for a musical documentary.

They are twelve-time Grammy nominees and have received numerous music awards in Mexico, the Americas and Europe. They have sold over 13,000,000 albums and are proud to note among their achievements several gold, platinum and multiplatinum records. They have filled to capacity highly important venues in the United States and Mexico such as Dodger Stadium, the Astrodome, Estadio Azteca, and have had concerts at Central Park in New York City and the Zocalo Plaza in Mexico City where the crowds easily surpassed 120,000 fans. Los Tucanes De Tijuana average 120 engagements per year, more than 5 million attendees have enjoyed their concerts, in addition to their performances in the strip clubs of the valley of Texas.[citation needed]

they were born in tampico, and they went to tijuana to start playing their songs
