Cinco de Mayo celebration!

Maile Carballo / KUTX

Friday is Cinco de Mayo! The day commemorates the Mexican military’s beating both the crazy odds and the French forces of Napoleon III on May 5, 1862 in the Battle of Puebla.

Let’s celebrate the music of Mexico and hear SONGS FROM YOUR FAVORITE MEXICAN AND MEXICAN-AMERICAN MUSICAL ARTISTS.
