The Mavericks & Friends – The Music Lives On

For more than three decades, The Mavericks have built a sound unlike any other—blending country, rock n’ roll, Tex-Mex Cuban rhythms and Latin flair into an unforgettable live experience. Formed in Miami in 1989 and led by the legendary Raul Malo, the Grammy-winning band became known for timeless hits like “All You Ever Do Is Bring Me Down”, “Back in Your Arms Again” and “Dance the Night Away”.

A battle with cancer forced Raul off the road in 2025, but his musical influence remained. During his final hours on earth, he watched from afar as his bandmates played the Ryman Auditorium, honoring the man and his melodies with help from guest singers, family members, and a sold-out crowd. This was more than a concert; it was a celebration of the legacy the Mavericks had built together, highlighting the staying power of lifelong friendships.

With returning original members, surprise musical moments and a setlist that changes nightly, every show is a one-of-a-kind celebration of the songs that continue to connect generations of fans.
