Rolling Stone Magazine.- In honor of his upcoming album, Hecho En México, the beloved Mexican balladeer Alejandro “El Potrillo” Fernández has announced dates for an expansive headlining tour across the United States, Canada and Europe.
Hecho En México is due for release on Friday the 14th — or, appropriately, Valentine’s Day.
Produced by Live Nation, the United States and Canada leg of the tour kicks off May 22 in Fresno, California, at the Save Mart Center and will wrap up September 20 in San Antonio, Texas, at the AT&T Center. This run includes Fernández’s first show in Toronto, Canada, at Meridian Hall. The European tour will also include his first-ever shows in London and Paris.
Hecho En México marks a homecoming of sorts for the mariachi star. As the son of Vicente Fernández, King of Ranchera, Alejandro furthered his father’s legacy by marrying contemporary pop melodrama to the regional Mexican folk sounds that raised him.
Featuring cameos by Christian Nodal, Luis Carlos Monroy, Jorge Massias and Chico Elizalde, the new album showcases El Potrillo’s range as both a standout vocalist and master of mariachi. Alejandro most recently appeared with his father last November at the 20th Annual Latin Grammy Awards, where he and his son Alex honored the senior Fernández with a soulful medley of his greatest hits.
Hecho En México is now available for pre-order.
