Local Band Spotlight: Pachucos Coahuila

Meet Pachucos Coahuila--aka, bouncy rhythm slingers from Coahuila (via Raleigh):



I met accordionist Ramiro at the Farmer's Market last weekend, where he sold me some nice red yarrow and lantana.

Though originated in Colombia, this style of cumbia is favored in Mexico's northern Coahuila state and the associated Texas border region, Ramiro says.
