Episode 114 - Haydn Vitera – Mariachi Rock Revolution

Our guest today is no stranger to pushing musical boundaries. A classically trained violinist, powerhouse vocalist, and seasoned performer, Haydn Vitera has shared the stage with legends and carved out his own space with a bold new sound. He’s the visionary behind Mariachi Rock Revolution, a high-energy fusion of mariachi and rock that’s redefining what it means to celebrate cultural heritage through music.

In this episode, Haydn talks about his musical journey, the inspiration behind blending mariachi with electrifying rock, and how this unique sound is both honoring tradition and breaking new ground.
