Mexican music shines at Billboard Latin Music Week En Vivo With Grupo Frontera & Majo Aguilar

Tuesday night (October 15) was a very Mexican night at Billboard Latin Music Week's En Vivo, with amazing performances from Grupo Frontera and special guest Majo Aguilar.

The outdoor stage at Wynwood Marketplace proved to be the perfect venue to enjoy Aguilar, who sang in her very personal style with a mariachi band songs such as “La Negra,” “El Rey” and “Un Puño de Tierra” — a of the many hits written by her grandfather Antonio Aguilar. She left no doubt about her intention to highlight the family and cultural traditions of a renowned Mexican musical dynasty. He also paid a very personal tribute to Selena with “Si Una Vez.”

Aguilar warming up the audience for Grupo Frontera, who hours ago had participated in the panel Making the Hit LIVE!, where Payo Solís (vocals), Alberto Acosta (bajo quinto), Juan Javier Cantú (accordion), Carlos Guerrero ( drums), Julian Peña Jr. (percussion) and Brian Ortega (bass) worked magic creating a new cumbia in front of the audience at Latin Music Week.

On stage at the Wynwood Marketplace, the band opened with 'Tulum', the song they released with Mexican star Peso Pluma, and other collaborations followed. Since their debut two years ago, they have become one of the hottest acts in local Mexican and other genres.

“Di Que Sí” (recorded with Marca Registrada), “De Lunes a Lunes” (with Manuel Turizo), “Pienso en Ella” (with Gabito Ballesteros), “Alv”, “Hecha pa'mí”, ” Ojitos rojos” (with Ke Personajes), “Bebe Dame” (with Fuerza Regida), “En Altavoz” (with Junior H), “No Se Va”, “Por Qué Será” (with Maluma), ” Que Vuelvas” (with Carín León ) and “El Amor de su Vida” (with Grupo Firme) were all in a setlist gift to the fans, who sang along word for word during the hour-long show. He ended with “Un x100to” (originally recorded with Bad Bunny), which peaked at No. 5 on the Billboard Hot 100 and spent six weeks at No. 1 on the Latin Airplay chart.
