M and M is back
Mark García and Mike Avina, of M and M Productions, are back with another Midwest Tejano-Conjunto EXPLOSION, scheduled for this Sunday, Sept. 4, at Centennial Terrace in Sylvania.
Ten dynamite Michigan and Ohio bands are scheduled: Agustine Burciaga (Adrian), Grupo Vizion (Toledo), Grupo Sensacion (Auburn Hills), The Bad Boyz (Adrian), Grupo Vicio, La Corporacion (Lansing), Los Cuatro Vientos, Grupo Maximo, Grupo Dezeo, and Tejano Sound (Lansing).
García and Avina have been close friends for over 26 years and have great passion for Tejano/Conjunto music, as exemplified in this year’s and last year’s shows, including the Joe Posada, David Marez, Chente Barrera trio this past Memorial Day weekend at the same venue.

“The purpose of this annual event is to expose and showcase the awesome Tejano talent in the Midwest, particularly in Michigan and Ohio,” said García and Avina.
According to M and M, the only downside to this year’s event is the tragic death of guitarist Joe Herrera of La Corporacion this past weekend. Herrera and two others were killed in an accident after the band’s performance at the annual festival in Pontiac.
“Our prayers and condolences go out to the family and friends of Joe as well as to La Corporacion,” said García and Avina.
