Eslabon Armado

Trailblazing regional Mexican band Eslabón Armado is confirmed to perform at Vina Robles Amphitheatre, Friday, June 20. The sierreño act, has been on a meteoric rise since 2020, while simultaneously firing up the música mexicana movement.

Tickets are available via Ticketmaster, Friday, April 4, at 10AM.

The band, which was formed in 2017, blends elements of norteño, corrido, and banda music, and are known for their contemporary twist on traditional Mexican sounds, merging modern styles with traditional instrumentation, such as the use of the accordion, bajo sexto, and tuba. Their catchy beats and relatable lyrics, often dealing with themes of love, relationships, and life in the Mexican-American community, have earned them a dedicated younger audience fanbase.

The group made history in 2022, when their album Nostalgia became the first top 10-charting regional Mexican album ever on Billboard 200. This was followed in 2023 when “Ella Baila Sola” a collaboration with Mexican powerhouse Peso Pluma, became the first regional Mexican song to reach the top 10 of Billboard’s Hot 100 chart and was crowned song of the summer.

Recently frontman and songwriter Pedro Tovar signed a worldwide publishing deal with Kobalt to administer his future songs globally.

Eslabón Armado consists of brothers Pedro Tovar Jr. (vocals) and Brian Tovar (bass), alongside Damian Pacheco (requinto guitar) and Ulises Gonzalez (acoustic guitar).

Some of their biggest hits include songs like "Yo Ya Te Olvidé," "La Mejor de Todas," and "Con Tus Besos." The band is also known for collaborating with other artists in the regional Mexican genre such as Junior H, Grupo Frontera and Gabita Ballesteros.
