Los Tigres Del Norte full press release…
Already boasting an unparalleled career resume as “the most influential regional Mexican group” (Billboard) and “the genre’s greatest statesmen” (New York Times), the legendary Los Tigres Del Norte remain one of Latin Music’s leading creative and socially outspoken voices, as they continue to sell millions of albums, regularly top sales and airplay charts, and win the recognition of their peers with multiple GRAMMY & LATIN GRAMMY Awards.
Now, ‘Los Jefes de Jefes’ turn their eye to the future with the forthcoming release of their new album Detalles y Emociones (Details & Emotions). The album continues Los Tigres’ heralded role as “the leading voice of the immigrant community” with 15 new songs that give life to the emotions of the ‘pueblo in the form of corridos, ballads, cumbias and rancheras.
This album features prominent composers of the genre such as: Paulino Vargas Jr., Manuel Eduardo Toscano, Francisco Quintero and Pablo Castro among others, in this form Los Tigres del Norte narrate us the songs that give life to the emotions of the ‘pueblo.’
The album’s first single “Detalles” (which is already racing up the Latin music charts), is a heartfelt corrido that is a reminder to the band’s fans that while many are pursuing dreams of material wealth, that genuine demonstrations of affection and care for our loved ones are still a man’s greatest riches.
Another sure highlight of Detalles y Emociones and one of Los Tigres’ most controversial songs to date is “El Muro” (The Wall), a highly outspoken track that challenges the idea of a proposed Border Fence between the United States and Mexico. A special bonus version of the track finds Los Tigres’ famed front man Jorge Hernandez sing in Spanish, English, German, French and even Farsi to symbolize failed border walls throughout history.
Further tracks in the grand tradition of Los Tigres del Norte include "Lágrimas de sangre;" “Un Hombre De Ley;” the emotion driven ballad “Corazon Herido;” “Los Mal Portados;” “America Central”, a rhythmic cumbia (which pays homage to the people of Central American who have welcomed the band with open arms throughout their career); “Cuidado Con La Mesera” which details the story of an undercover police woman who manages to trap fugitives through seduction.
The album concludes with a special message from Los Tigres del Norte, thanking their fans across the world for their years of loyal support and encouraging them to continue the struggle in spite of the adversities encountered along their life’s path.
The release of Detalles y Emociones marks the eagerly awaited follow-up to Los Tigres’ highly praised 2006 album Historias Que Contar. Spearheaded by the #1 single Señor Locutor” which paid tribute to the growing role of Latin radio DJ’s in connecting estranged family members in the immigrant community, Historias Que Contar contained 14 heartfelt corridos and proved to all that Los Tigres remain at the forefront of Regional Mexican artistry by winning both the most recent GRAMMY® and LATIN GRAMMY® Award for ‘Best Norteño Album.’
Shortly after the Spring 2006 release of Historias Que Contar, Los Tigres del Norte once again demonstrated their role as the leading “voice of the pueblo” by joining en masse with their community as the principal musical participants of the Great American Boycott’ (A Day Without Immigrants) rally in downtown Los Angeles. By appearing front and center at the biggest of the nation-wide rallies, Los Tigres were lending highly visible support to the millions of immigrants that came together to demonstrate their essential role to the economy and culture of the United States.
