Mariachi Tigre was founded on CC Campus in 1999 and has seen several successful performances since. The mariachi band is open to any student wishing to play, sing, play violin, trumpet, guitar, vihuela, or guitarron. Harp and accordion players are also encouraged to join. Student performers are also joined by a small number of CC alum and community members. Mariachi Tigre performs at least two concerts every year (one per semester). The mariachi band is a fun way to continue to play your instruments in a new style, or it can be a great way to learn a new instrument.
