Bands from Jalisco, in western Mexico, have been providing a unique form of relaxed, romantic accompaniment to weddings since before the Mexican Revolution. Some say the French word for "marriage" may have given their ensembles and their music its name: Mariachi. Now popular at restaurants, bars, and receptions on both sides of the border, Mariachi bands include guitars, the low, thrumming guitarron, violins, a trumpet, and a high-pitched singer. They also come equipped with a repertoire of ballads, polkas, waltzes, and cumbias. Mariachi bands are known for their stylized, sombrero-and-bolero-coat uniforms, and for wandering from bar to street corner to bar, playing their traditional music.
Mariachi: Miguel Aceves Mejía, Pepe Aguilar, Mariachi Silvestre Vargas, Mariachi Mexico De Pepe Villa, Mariachi Casino, Mariachi Los Caporales, Lupillo Rivera, Amalia Mendoza, Raul Sandoval, Mariachi Vargas De Tecalitlan, Cuco Sanchez, Jorge Negrete, Alejandro Fernandez, Mariachi Cobre, Mariachi Alas De Mexico, Mariachi Los Toritos, and Mariachi El Bronx.

Spanish (from Spain) slang for a joint containing both weed (María) and hash (Hachís)
If you invite your partner or friend to a "mariachi" either you'll make their day or they'll get knocked out by it (maybe both)

A colorful and lively style of music that originated from Cocula, Jalisco, Mexico. Instruments typically include: guitar, vihuela (often called mexican guitar), guitarron (mexican bass), violin, trumpet, and sometimes harps and flutes. Mariachis usually dress in silver-studded charro outfits with wide-brimmed hats (sombreros).
Mariachis are usually professional entertainers who are paid for gigs. Today, many Mariachis have become worldwide musicians and entertainers (Mariachi Vargas, Mariachi Sol de Mexico).
Mariachis are usually associated with the Mexican Independence, and seen as Mexico's spirit in form of music.
