CharroBeans: A Mariachi Podcast

Don’t call it a comeback. The CharroBoys get back in the booth and are back with more new episodes of CharroBeans. We’re back and discussing the 3 month hiatus, what we’ve been up to, toxic partners, gigging with other groups, 2 ice ages in Texas, lack of consistent work, el covid, and coming back to the pod. We missed ya. 

The CharroBoys crank one last episode before taking a few weeks off. We get into waitresses throwing away your food, what the group does when Sammy can’t go gig, pop quizzes in church, change in temperature on Dia de La Virgen weekend, singing to the wrong birthday girl, and the death of an icon. RIP to the last living legend, Vicente Fernandez. End of an era. 

The CharroBoys had WORK this week. We’ll take you through the seven-hour weekend, playing for clients that feed you tacos after the gig, wedding planners that don’t want you to play, fancy weddings where you don’t belong, short DJ’s and the beginning of Día de La Virgen weekend. LA GUADALUPANA TIME IS COMING! 🙏🏽

The CharroBoys hardly had work so we winging it. We get into people in your life that taught you about the world, fighting with your barber, Thanksgiving without turkey, getting yelled at by the mariachi boss, getting some armonia help, and super lame quince in OKC. How you gonna hire us for 3 hours and not even try to enjoy the musicians? 

Happy Thanksgiving, y’all. Today we give thanks to you for continued support. We get into it today with underwear choices, traje fittings, missing gigs to go to concerts, the effects of Red Bull, clients twerking on you, and change of plans. How we been together all day and haven’t played a single note yet? Mariachi life. 🥴

The CharroBoys are back with some stufffffff. Today we discuss today’s trends in the youth, driving stick, playing at sketchy restaurants, playing for a 70 year old graduate, and getting the van stuck in the mud (again). When will we learn? When will we learn? 🥲

The CharroBoys get into it this week with oral dental care, Daylight Savings, Mexican outfits, waitresses under the influence, dancing while crying, and how do you approach the boss when you’re switching groups. Don’t worry we haven’t been fired. Yet 🥴🔥

The CharroBoys get into with some talks about ruining movie nights with surprise performances, cats, playing for 5 birthdays all at once, faulty sound systems, and exes breaking your instruments. Ever stolen anything from a gig? 

The CharroBoys get into some deep convos including taking breaks for your mental health, the importance of taking a day off, growing up with Mexican parents, the curse of falling, serving yourself food at the gig, and losing instruments. So much we get into this episode. Hope it helps. 

The CharroBoys are back from El Paso talking about their experience over there, our older mariachi members still out here on their grind, discuss voice projection at gigs, jet lag, playing in the sun for funerals, and dealing with creepy clients. 2 hours in the sun had us a lil burned 🥵🔥
