La Tuza is proud to announce the release of Son del Otro Lado, their first full-length recording.

La Tuza will also be joined with special guest Gabriel Guzman (Radio Jarocho, NYC) on huapanguera and leona who recorded with the group on Son del Otro Lado!
La Tuza is a dynamic acoustic trio that performs Mexican roots music. Their repertoire includes pieces from African-influenced son jarocho of southern Veracruz, the swinging son calentano of the Mexican Hotlands, and the fiery son huasteco of central Mexico. The diverse instrumentation of La Tuza includes jarana jarocha, jarana huasteca (both small guitar-like instruments native to Mexico) plus guitar, violin, cajon, pandero, and the quijada (donkey jawbone!). Interestingly, son is now also played in urban centers and performed in places far from its native region (such as Los Angeles, Chicago, New York, and now Boston!) As far as we know, they are the only band of their kind in New England and one of only a few on the East Coast.
