Flor de Toloache

Part of The Sheldon’s Folk series
Latin Grammy-winning all-female mariachi group Flor de Toloache has earned acclaim for their recent performances at Coachella and on NPR’s Tiny Desk Concerts series, introducing them to a new, international audience. Named for the delirium-inducing Mexican flower used as a love potion for generations, the band is a truly global ensemble, with musicians hailing from multiple countries. “There should be fireworks named after this band, for all the intensity and color and life that bursts forth from Flor de Toloache.” – NPR
