OVERVIEW
Growing up in a musical household, Edgar started his first band at 17 playing drums as his primary instrument. Piano was actually his first instrument — initially as a young child and again around age 13. Over the years he wrote approximately 60 songs and recorded a demo.
Though it didn’t achieve commercial success, music has remained a constant creative outlet. In 2023 he returned to the studio — this time as a one-person band — and recorded Punk Sabor Tequila under the name Los Mariachis Muertos.
LOS MARIACHIS MUERTOS
The concept is simple and ridiculous: take beloved Mexican mariachi classics — the songs every Mexican grows up singing at family gatherings — and play them as punk rock. Every instrument, every vocal, recorded by one person.
Think Me First and the Gimme Gimmes meets a Mexican wedding. The album covers 11 iconic songs from México Lindo y Querido to La Bikina, reimagined with distorted guitars, fast tempos, and the same heart the originals were written with.

Green Day was the soundtrack to growing up. This cover plays every instrument on the track — drums, guitars, bass, and vocals.
After years away from songwriting, Edgar picked up music again and started writing new material. This is one of those tracks.
Piano was actually Edgar's first instrument — first as a young kid, then again around 13. He was never great at it, but it stuck around.

Deberías Saber (You Should Know) In this article, I reminisce about my experience writing my first hit song at the age of 21. This song was an unexpected milestone in my life—it found its way into the music libraries of my friends, onto the radio, and even led to a moment of street recognition. Encouraged by this experience, I continued writing music. The song narrates the bittersweet tale of a young man who fell in love with the wrong woman, providing a more ironic than accurate portrayal of reality. Now, it's available in Spanish, English, and German, and I've even broken it down by individual tracks for you to remix or play along with. While the lyrics may not be deeply intellectual, they come from a place of genuine emotion. I encourage you to make the song your own, and share your results in the comments. Remember, music is all about having fun! For commercial uses, please contact me. Enjoy the musical journey! Read article →
