Voz de Mando is a Latin Grammy Award-nominated music group based in Los Angeles that performs Mexican Regional music.[1] The group found mainstream success with their hit single "Comandos del M.P. (500 Balazos)" in 2010. Founded in 2009 and originally hailing from Culiacán, Sinaloa, Mexico, Voz de Mando is based in Huntington Park, a city in Los Angeles County. Band members include brothers Jorge Gaxiola (acordeon, vocals) and Miguel Gaxiola (bajosexto, vocals), plus Domingo Bolaños "El Mingo" (tuba) and Carlos Sígala "Charly" (drums). Voz de Mando initially made a name for themselves with the self-released albums Levantando la Voz (2009) and 12 Impactos de Alto Calibre (2009). Upon signing a recording contract with the Univision Music Group label Disa Records, they made their major-label album debut with Con la Nueva Federacion (2010). One of several songs on the album written by Gaxiola brother Miguel, the album's lead single, the corrido "Comandos del M.P. (500 Balazos)," was a breakout hit for the group, reaching the Top Ten of the Billboard Regional Mexican Songs chart.
