On the southernmost tip of Texas, Brownsville sits at the birthplace of conjunto, the accordion and bajo sexto style that Narciso Martinez helped shape in nearby San Benito.

Country and rock fill local stages, but the core sound remains rooted in Mexican American border tradition; conjunto and Tejano are not genres here, they are the native language of the Valley.
