The Mavericks are an eclectic American band that melds a vibrant mix of rockabilly, neo-traditional country, Latin, and rock and roll sounds to create a unique musical experience. Originally formed in 1989 in Miami, Florida, the group is known for their dynamic live performances and a distinctive fusion of genres that defies traditional categorization. Fronted by the charismatic Raul Malo, whose rich baritone voice has become a signature element of their sound, The Mavericks reached commercial success with hits like "What a Crying Shame" and "All You Ever Do Is Bring Me Down."

Throughout their career, The Mavericks have maintained a dedicated fan base and critical acclaim, marked by a hiatus in the early 2000s before a reunion in 2012 heralded a creative resurgence. Since then, they've produced albums such as "In Time" (2013), which celebrates its 10th anniversary with a deluxe edition, and the Spanish-language "En Español" (2020), showcasing the band's versatility and affinity for Latin music. Their exploration of different genres is further highlighted in releases like "Play the Hits" (2019), which sees the group covering classic songs with their unique twist, and holiday-themed "Hey! Merry Christmas!" (2018). True to form, The Mavericks continue to chart their own path, bringing together a rich tapestry of sounds that celebrate multicultural influences and their unstoppable energy as a live band.
