The BANDA MS DE SERGIO LIZÁRRAGA was born in Mazatlan, Sinaloa in 2003, taking the initials of their homeland to give the group its name. The founders of the band managed to combine their ideas and concerns to offer people a different and original product, using its own formula and printing a cheerful and versatile touch. Youth, explosiveness, and talent, are the words with which we can currently define the BANDA MS, created by seven teenagers who, after having belonged to other renowned groups, decided to form their own musical organization. For a year and a half, they planned the birth of a new band, they began to take the first steps to make reality, that at that time, were only dreams. To date, BANDA MS is synonymous with stability and international projection. Always with firm objectives, the group has earned the nickname of "the highest grossing band,” a slogan that reflects the work that has been carried out over more than 15 years of musical career.

About Banda MS: And it plays and plays…..
In the month of May 2020, the song " QUÉ MALDICIÓN " (Feat. BANDA MS & SNOOP DOGG) is released, this release revolutionized the music industry in Mexico and the world.
“QUÉ MALDICIÓN”, a song that broke with all previously established parameters and that proves, once again, that in a globalized world, music is the best tool to cross borders and explore unknown territories.
Listening to this song, it will be difficult to pigeonhole it into a musical genre, since different musical sounds converge in it, ranging from banda to urban hip hop. Two of the most important and influential musical exponents in their respective genres come together musically to obtain an exceptional result and the song " QUÉ MALDICIÓN " proves it.
The name of the BANDA MS appeared on radio stations, newspapers and television channels in Russia, Spain, Argentina and Colombia, among many others. With this, the banda genre took a step forward in the world music scene, making the MS the forerunner of this great achievement.
This success story begins in 2003 in Mazatlan, Sinaloa, the BANDA MS DE SERGIO LIZÁRRAGA was born, taking the initials of their homeland to give the group its name. The founders of the band managed to combine their ideas and concerns to offer people a different and original product.
Youth, explosiveness, and talent, are the words with which we can currently define the BANDA MS, created by seven teenagers who, after having belonged to other renowned groups, decided to form their own musical organization. For a year and a half, they planned the birth of a new band, they began to take the first steps to make reality, what at that time, were only dreams.
To date, BANDA MS is synonymous with stability and international projection. Always with firm objectives, the group has earned the nickname of "the highest grossing band,” a slogan that reflects the work that has been carried out over more than 15 years of musical career.
Their first record production was released in 2004 and was titled "NO PODRÁS", from this album the singles came off: "No podras" and "La suata", both authored by vocalist Oswaldo Silvas. In this same year Alan Manuel Ramírez Salcido joined the band, with the aim of offering the public a musical variety mixing two exceptional voices.
A year later, they released the album “MI MAYOR ANHELO” whose first single was the song “Ayer la vi por la calle.” From this album the popular theme was also released: “Mi mayor anhelo,” with which the BANDA MS DE SERGIO LIZÁRRAGA receives the award for "Best theme of the year" awarded by an important Mazatlán radio station.
In 2006 "LA RAZA CONTENTA" was released, in which only corridos were included, highlighting the hits "El 24" and "Chuy y Mauricio.” In 2007 their next production titled “ESCUELA DE RANCHO” came out, from which the song “El mechón” came off, a song that became a success and was a turning point in their career.
To date, BANDA MS DE SERGIO LIZÁRRAGA has received multiple awards and recognitions in Mexico and the United States. Proud representatives of the music of Sinaloa, the group has become an ambassador that through the sound of the tuba and drum has crossed borders, always carrying the name of Mexico very high, endorsed the well-earned title of "the highest grossing band".
In 2017 BANDA MS decides to do something different, creating their own reality show. This series is entitled “HERMOSA EXPERIENCIA.” The first phase consists of 15 episodes, each of them with an approximate duration of 7 minutes. This reality show has the fundamental characteristic of including totally unpublished content.
In 2018, innovating again, the MS includes in its musical performance an acoustic segment in which it is made up of instruments that are not usually used in a Sinaloa band crew, such as the piano, the soprano sax and a "bugle.” Additionally, there is also a segment where the sound of the accordion is incorporated into the band, thereby creating a special atmosphere.
The BANDA MS DE SERGIO LIZÁRRAGA has distinguished itself since its inception for being different. The group has chosen to wear some of its performance costumes with numbers that distinguish each of its members. The meaning has reference to data such as birthdays and anniversaries.
The 17 musicians that currently make up this musical organization are fully aware that when things are done with faith and conviction, the results will always be positive. 14 years have passed, and much progress has been made, but there is still a long way to go.
Today the group not only represents Sinaloa music but has also become a representative of part of our culture and our folklore. Every day the responsibility is greater, but also day after day the satisfactions are greater. "We are a group like any of today's well-known bands, but with a different interpretation style, so as not to sound like the others and thus be able to stand out from the competition."
“When the boys and I started this musical project, we dreamed of living what we are now living. But what we never imagined was that we would achieve it in such a short time; stepping on the stages we have stepped on and being where we are at this moment. We know we have a long way to go but everything went beyond our expectations. I saw myself with a good band, playing well, working... but not like what we have achieved so far”.
Words by Sergio Lizarraga
About Los 2 de la S: In 2017, two young musicians decide to unite their vocal talents and create a new concept, they are Johnny Zazueta and Omar Tarazón, who have succeeded together and separately as composers.
Both singer-songwriters had already been working together on the composition, but each had pursued their career as a singer separately. It was at the initiative of Sergio Lizárraga, leader of Banda MS, that the idea of creating this duet arose. One day they went to give him material, he listened to them and motivated them to sing together.
From that moment they shaped the project under the name LOS 2 DE LA S, which they chose because there are two of them and they are from Sinaloa.
It is important to mention that Johnny Zazueta has been the composer of songs such as: “Amándote” by the Original Banda el Limón, “Bonito y bello” by la Séptima Banda, “Al cien y pasadito” by Jorge Medina, “Mentirosa” by Luis Coronel and “Nos tocaba ser feliz” by Calibre 50, among others.
For his part, Omar Tarazón has been a composer of songs such as: “Por este amor” with Banda MS, “La calabaza” with La Arrolladora, “Cicatrices” by Régulo Caro, “La bala” by Los Tigres del Norte, “Levantando polvareda” by Voz de Mando and “Soltero disponible” by Régulo Caro, among many others.
“De fiesta” is the title of the first discography production of the duet LOS 2 DE LA S. It includes 14 songs with a great variety of rhythms: boleros, rancheras, cumbias, three quarters and romantic ballads.
As expected, most of the songs are inspired by Omar and Johnny, with the exception of one, which is called "Tanto Tiempo" and is by Sergio Lizárraga Jr. and Ángel Sandoval.
The first single is “El Verbón,” a handsome and lively cumbia that talks about a guy who has a lot of words and with that he conquers women, proving that words kill faces. This song is by Omar Tarazón and Luis Siqueiros, whose lyrics have a touch of mischief and double meaning.
In the second promotional cut, the title of the same "En plural" was released in January 2019, a romantic ballad that was already very well received by the main specialized radio stations in Mexico and the USA.
Thanks to the success of “En plural,” LOS 2 DE LA S obtained three nominations for the prestigious Premios lo Nuestro in the shortlists such as: “Male Newcomer Artist,” “Song of the Year – Regional Mexican: En plural” and “Band Song of the Year - Regional Mexican: En plural.”
In the month of January 2020, LOS 2 DE LA S presents us with a new promotional cut. It is about the theme “PERDÓN, PERDÓN,” a very commercial song, with lyrics that immediately remain engraved in our minds. Original composition by Omar Tarazón.
One of the most transcendental moments in the artistic career of this group occurs with the launch of the song “SOMOS LOS QUE SOMOS,” performed in a live version by LOS 2 DE LA S and the BANDA MS DE SERGIO LIZÁRRAGA. It should be mentioned that with this song LOS 2 DE LA S managed to occupy the first place in radio popularity in the United States, according to specialized monitoring charts.
Said recording took place during the concerts held on February 14 and 15, 2020 at the Staples Center in the city of Los Angeles. In those presentations, the group LOS 2 DE LA S was a special guest of the band and a live version of this emotional song was recorded.
In the month of July 2020 LOS 2 DE LA S presented us the album “LA BARDA ME VOLÉ,” it is a very complete production that includes 16 songs that are: “LA BARDA ME VOLÉ,” “PERDÓN, PERDÓN,” “DEMONIOS INTERNOS,” “TE LO DIJE,” “LO QUE TERMINA EN ER,” “INTÉNTAME OLVIDAR,” “DE FIESTA EN FIESTA,” “A QUEMARROPA,” “QUE LÁSTIMA,” “CUENTÉNLE DE MÍ,” “CORTÁNDOME LAS VENAS,” “YO NUNCA ME RAJO,” “NADIE COMO TÚ,” “ENCONTRARTE,” “EL ÁRBOL” and “SOMOS LOS QUE SOMOS” (Feat. Banda MS).
