Mariachi Day is a holiday I celebrate annually with whomever I can convince to take the day off life and join me in a horse drawn carriage to meet a Mariachi band—Los Principes—In San Felipe, Guatemala.
Los Principes are the direct musical descendants of 18th and 19th Century Mexican folk farmers, who found an outlet for outlawed loves, longings, joys, and lamentations through the form of music today called Mariachi music.
