Grupo Firme

Grupo Firme is a popular Mexican regional band known for their energetic performances and catchy songs that often blend traditional Mexican music with contemporary styles. Founded in 2013, the band gained widespread recognition for their corridos tumbados, a modern interpretation of the traditional narcocorridos, which narrate stories about drug trafficking and life in Mexico. Their rise to fame has sparked debate about the impact of narcocorridos on society, especially amidst concerns over glorifying the drug trade. Recently, the band has sought to distance itself from the narcocorridos genre amid increasing scrutiny from both the government and the public, particularly following events that highlighted the violent realities associated with drug cartels.
