“the godfathers of norteno music, Los Tigres have crossed many borders in their career…the group updated the traditional conjunto sound and turned it into an international phenomenon…their music has helped to break down barriers between cultures, generations and even countries, particularly between Mexico and the United States …long revered as the voice of the Latino immigrant community, Los Tigres spends 10 months on the road… Its ever-expanding fan base inspired the Grammy-winning group’s latest disc, “Raices”… when Los Tigres take the stage, they celebrate these roots but also the ongoing saga of the immigrant experience.” - Chicago Sun-Times

“the most popular Norteño group in the world… these grand men of music have taken their message of hope and hardship beyond the borderland and into millions of hearts throughout the United States and Mexico.” –Dan Rather

“norteño icons Los Tigres del Norte [are] the most influential regional Mexican group in the United States… Los Tigres are not just another popular musical act… Instead, they’re widely viewed as the voice of the people, capable of making you dance to a cumbia one instant, [or] weep the next with a woeful immigrant’s tale” –Billboard

“Singing Stories From Lives Lived Far Away From Home…Los Tigres del Norte have perfected a ground-level symbiosis with their fans. … Their show on Saturday night, was mega-size: music all night and far into the morning hours… Los Tigres playing 42 songs, finally ending at 3 a.m… each time Los Tigres bit into the groove of a two-beat ranchera, sustenance was served in jolts… the band’s [leader] Jorge Hernández…was mesmerizing”

- New York Times- “Arts & Leisure” COVER – Concert Review

“Los Tigres del Norte has reinvented Mexican music… Every record sells a million copies… Its logo is as well known in Mexican communities as Coca-Cola’s… Los Tigres [are] the most perceptive chroniclers of the Mexican-American experience. In song, they reflect its most personal feelings, and [take] the side of millions of immigrants who are voiceless on both sides of the border… following a Los Tigres concert schedule is to discover all the places Mexicans live … Their songs remain one of the clearest windows into the immigrant soul.” – Los Angeles Times
