Los Tigres del Norte, the influential Mexican band, celebrated the naming of 'Los Tigres del Norte Way' in Brooklyn as a tribute to their decades-long impact on music and culture. The street sign unveiling occurred amid their continued success, which includes a new EP titled 'La Lotería,' addressing themes like immigration. The celebration is particularly special as the band will also perform at Madison Square Garden for the first time. This marks yet another recognition of their legacy, following a similar honor in Chicago's Little Village neighborhood.
"Starting today, a street in Brooklyn carries the name of Los Tigres del Norte. Thank you for walking with us, today and always."
"We've been coming to New York for so many years. We've been able to connect with the community, so that's why we've been selected today to have the street and we are very happy to be honored."
"The band will play its first-ever show at New York's historic Madison Square Garden on May 24 to wrap up their current East Coast stint."
"The title track of their new EP 'La Lotería' is a sociopolitical corrido that uses the imagery of the popular bingo-like Mexican game to comment on topics like immigration."
