February 1, 2016Amazing performance and talent
We had Cielito Lindo perform at my parents anniversary in a restaurant. They were on time, professional- but more than that- their talent was amazing. The voices- harmony, and the genuine passion for music was an incredible thing to watch! We felt lucky to have them perform- they truly made the occasion a memorable one for all of us.

Thank you, Maria! You have a wonderful family. We hope to get to know them better and perform for them again in the near future.

June 30, 2026A Cocktail Hour to Remember
Cielito Lindo played during our wedding’s cocktail hour. Our guests loved hearing them play and made comments all throughout the night about how beautiful the music was. Guests were requesting their information to hire them for future events. Cielito Lindo was perfect and I’m happy they were a part of our event!

June 29, 2026Cielito Lindo turned our family party into an Event
Just hire these folks! Easy and super friendly to work with and plan. Accommodating and kind. Joyful singers with excellent command of the crowd. Several guests applauded hiring youthful singers, "Feels good to hear our traditions carrying on.". Tia, who has been through so much, sat and cried through all the classics. Our college kids bopped to the hip tunes. Could not have been better!!!

June 6, 2026Great performance!!!!
Cielito lindo was the PERFECT Mariachi for our event! They read the crowd and responded so well. They played beautifully! My son who happens to be decently autistic, was so impressed! He danced to the music the entire time they played!!!!! Juan (the lead musician) was so attentive to him and that is above and beyond anything I ever expected when hiring a band for his party!!!
I should add that the arrived as scheduled, with enough time to warm up without interfering with the scheduled event. They were dressed to impress and took requests!

About
Our story:
The musical journey of the Lucero family began in 2006 when the two eldest boys (then 4 and 5) started performing alongside their father at the farmers market in Albuquerque, New Mexico. As fourth-generation musicians, music runs deep in their veins. In 2015, this large family of nine moved from their home state of New Mexico to Chicago to pursue their artistic dreams and have been making waves in the regional and natinal music scene ever since. The family which is based in Chicago, IL has performed for Nickelodeon's "America's Most Musical Family," Univision, Chicago Tonight, WGN, Chicago Bulls, and even Lollapalooza.
Catch Cielito Lindo regularly performing at various festivals, funerals, museums, and libraries, where they bring the spirit of Mexican folk music to life. Their dedication to preserving their Hispanic heritage and uplifting their cultural legacy has earned them accolades, with Univision Chicago's Jesse Echeverría describing them as a family group that celebrates and honors Mexican music traditions.
Ana Belaval of WGN says, "To meet a couple with seven children is shocking, but then to learn that every single member of that family is musically talented and together they make up a band that travels the Midwest entertaining thousands... that takes the shock to another level!"
Experience the magic of Cielito Lindo firsthand, as they bring their awe-inspiring performance and undeniable passion for music to your special event. Whether it's your wedding, corporate function, or any other celebration, trust Cielito Lindo to create a truly unforgettable musical experience. Contact us today to book this extraordinary family band for your next event, and let the enchanting melodies of their music elevate your occasion to new heights. Gracias!
