Metalachi was born over a decade ago as the result of a night of tequila-fueled mariachi debauchery and wild abuelitas screaming for the popular metal and mariachi songs of their youth; the resulting love child has had the power to remove bras and bring smiles to many people in the subsequent years, with performances ranging from iconic venues such as The Viper Room and Whiskey A Go-Go to Heavy Montreal Festival, Monsters of Rock Cruise, Netflix is a Joke with Burt Kreischer, and even a nationally airing AT&T commercial. “Metalachi is not your mama's mariachi band." - Julian Gill, Houston Chronicle “Metalachi cleverly combined world-class musicianship with a great deal of showmanship... in the way they mix folk influences with world-class musical skills and rock. The band also puts on a great live show, and every member of the audience can’t help but leave the venue with a huge smile on their face.” - Nix Ulrich, Broken Photography "They combine the humor of Steel Panther, the flamboyant of GWAR, and the eclectic rawness of Rob Zombie. There’s also a little dose of Spinal Tap and a hit of Cheech & Chong. The music is classic metal covers from artists like Metallica fused with classic mariachi by Vicente Fernandez and Mariachi Vargas de Tecalitlan. Their setlist is punctuated by comedic interludes and skits." - Phoenix New Times
