Los Cuates de Sinaloa

Los Cuates de Sinaloa, formed by cousins Gabriel and Martiniano Berrelleza, emerged from La Vainilla, Sinaloa in 1995, and built their career in Phoenix, Arizona, where they refined their stripped-down, guitar-driven take on the Sierreño genre. After years of performing at private events and local venues, they gained national recognition with their 2006 signing to Sony BMG and the release of Puro Sierreño Bravo, which reached Number 13 on the Billboard Top Latin Albums chart. Their storytelling, often centered around narcocorridos and socio-political themes, sparked both controversy and acclaim, with tracks like "El Carril Numero 3" and "Negro y Azul: The Ballad of Heisenberg"—featured in Breaking Bad—cementing their impact. Throughout the late 2000s, they maintained momentum with hit albums such as Los Gallos Más Caros (2007), Mi Santito Preferido (2008), and Pegando con Tuba (2009), consistently landing on Latin charts despite radio limitations. Their relentless touring across the U.S. and Mexico helped establish a dedicated fanbase, even as they took a brief hiatus before returning with Cartel Más Fuerte (2016), Mi Sangre en Licor (2016), and Recordando el Rancho (2017).
