Renowned for their spirited performances of "huapango" music – characterized by a lively rhythm, poetic lyrics, and the intricate playing of stringed instruments – the trio preserves and disseminates one of Mexico's most cherished folk music styles. The members of the trio typically play the violin, the jarana huasteca – a small five-string rhythm guitar, and the huapanguera – a large eight-string bass guitar. Together, their harmonies and melodies intertwine to convey stories of love, nature, and everyday life in rural Mexico.
