Los Tucanes de Tijuana (formed in 1987) is a prodigious and multi-award winning Mexican norteño and corrida music group, hailing from Tijuana, Sinaloa, Mexico.
Initially making a name for themselves playing local nightclubs around Sinaloa, in 1987 Los Tucanes de Tijuana was comprised of Marop Quintero Lara, David Servin Raya, Alfredo González González, Gustavo Labrada Valenzuela, and Thomas A. Herrera. Upon forming the group signed with Cadena Musical/Unisono who issued their debut album “16 Exitos (La Canelera)” in 1987. The band would remain with the label until 1994 in which time Los Tucanes de Tijuana issued eight albums, most notably “Alegre Y Mujeriego”, “Soy Parrandero”, and “Clave Nueva”. By this point the band’s popularity was rising rapidly and after signing with Alcaran Records released the full-lengths “14 Tucanazos Bien Pesados” and “Mundo de Amor” in 1995.
The records catapulted Los Tucanes de Tijuana to national notoriety and they subsequently signed with EMI Latin. During the band’s short five year stay with the label, the norteño group issued a whopping 19 albums, spawning numerous radio hits. After signing with Fonovisa in 2006 Los Tucanes de Tijuana continued to release albums on a prodigious level, subsequently releasing a further 21 albums over the next eight years. The band has sold a staggering 13 million records worldwide, many of which have been certified gold, platinum or multi-platinum, they have eight Grammy nominations to their name, 66 Billboard hits and have played to adoring fans at sold-out arenas across the world. The group’s high volume of musical output combined with their consistent chart presence has made Los Tucanes de Tijuana one of the most successful Mexican bands of all time and ambassadors of the norteño genre.
