Sierreño

History#

Sierreño is believed to have originated from the highlands of northwestern states of Mexico (Sinaloa, Sonora, Chihuahua and Durango). Mexican singer-songwriter Ariel Camacho led the sierreño style with Los Plebes del Rancho in 2014. Camacho would go on to inspire many other later regional Mexican artists like Junior H and Iván Cornejo. These artists sang a style of sierreño known as sad sierreño, with lyrics that focus on heartbreak and love. Sierreño became popular among members of Generation Z, with the popularity of sad sierreño and urban sierreño. Other artists who perform sierreño music include Los Cuates de Sinaloa, Gerardo Ortíz, Regulo Caro, El Fantasma, Carín León, Luis R.
