Where Can I Hire a Mariachi Band?

Mariachi bands are everywhere. If they are not in your area, they will travel to you only for a little extra transportation fee, but i mean, thats worth it. Let me show you how to find them!

A mariachi band for hire is much willing to go anywhere and perform for any occasion because that is what we as musicians are meant to be. We are artist, but let's not forget we are entertainers at the end of the day. We go anywhere and therefore, just simply type in "bands for hire" in the google search engine and then a list of groups and performers will pop up on the google search results. But to be more specific, type in "mariachi bands for hire near me." A list of the nearest mariachis pops out. A little something shown below.

You can also call it rent a mariachi because that is what we are basically are, a rental service. You can rent a mariachi for x amount per hour. Most mariachi bands should be local but if anything, the nearest one should be further than 60-70 miles away. For example, I own a mariachi group and we go as far as Los Angeles. We are located in the Coachella Valley but We are willing to Travel. We have traveled to Portola, Escondido, Los Angeles, Arizona, And so many other cities. We are located in the Palm Springs area but if our clients want us to be where they want us to be, we will go, of course for an extra transportation cost.

Mariachi Reviews

Hiring a mariachi shouldn't be hard at all. I recommend you not hiring a mariachi through text message only, because you cannot see them in person. If they cannot answer the phone, then ask to speak with them when they are free. You want to make sure they are the real deal not a scammer. I bring this to the chat because I have had several clients complain to me (even though it is not my group) that a few groups didn't show up and that they gave a deposit online. They never spoke on the phone only through text, and never met in person. Come on, have more common sense.

I always meet with my clients and we talk about their event very thoroughly and professionally. Of course when i cannot speak, I usually send a message saying if I can return the call back later. Yes in my mariachi group reviews on google, I have a one star only because I didn't show up, yes I didn't show up only because we did not meet up in person. I personally like to meet my clients in person to settle things because it is more formal and I get to see who it is. I have had serval mariachi friends that have had clients that don't pay up and that take advantage by threatening. Ok yes I do have the one star review but its for all the good reasons. Look at my other reviews they are what I love doing.

How Much Is It to Hire a Mariachi Band

A mariachi band is usually more expensive than most local bands. Depending on how many musicians you would like.

In my website, I have 3 different prices because some times a clients just needs a few members for a certain task and some time the client cannot afford a 7 member band for $600.00 USD per hour. I offer my clients a 3 packages deal. From 4 musicians to my whole 7 member group. Most mariachi bands in the Coachella Valley have a price range that goes from $300-$600 per hour. Again, this all revolves in the number of members you would like at your event. So you check out a mariachi by calling them, then you ask what are their prices, and you like thats an affordable price, close the deal in person. You are always trying to close deals in person because online or just through text messages, that is a scam alert you should consider before booking the. When you hire a maraichi band, you and the group manager need to come to an agreement and make sure they will show up.
