La Maquinaria Norteña specialize in unleashing a quebradita dance-off with their light-hearted polka rhythms and commanding accordion riffage. But a standout characteristic of their sound is the horn section, which boasts bold sax melodies courtesy of Keith Nieto. Lead singer Sergio Soto belts out gritty songs of love, heartbreak, and small-town hardships, always with an open heart.
