BRONCO El Gigante de America
BRONCO El Gigante de America to Headline 2007 Palomino Fest
Palomino Fest will once again feature top peformers throughout Labor Day weekend at the Uvalde Fairgrounds. Co-headlining Sunday night of the festival with Uvalde’s own Los Palominos will be BRONCO El Gigante De America from Apodaca, Mexico.
Bronco’s modern take on the norteño style in the '80s and '90s helped earn them a number of international hits. Band members Jose Guadalupe "el Negro" Esparza, Ramiro Delgado, Javier Villarreal, and Jose Luis Villarreal crafted a sound that paid tribute to the norteño tradition while incorporating modern instruments like keyboards, as well as a more melodic, pop style and elaborate costumes.
Their CDs achieved solid sales in the U.S., and their recording Pura Sangre earned gold and platinum records in Chile, Argentina, Bolivia, and Paraguay, as well as in Mexico.
