Los Angeles, California (July 10, 2025)- As part of its monumental 60th anniversary celebration, La Original Banda El Limón de Salvador Lizárraga continues to honor its legacy in Mexican regional music with the release of the official music video for “Traguitos de licor.” The poignant collaboration with Julio Preciado, one of the most iconic voices in the band’s history, is both a musical reunion and an emotional tribute to the roots that shaped a genre.
Originally released across digital platforms, the track has already resonated deeply with fans, earning thousands of streams thanks to its classic Sinaloan ranchera sound and the stirring lyrics penned by Noé “El Gato” Hernández. “Traguitos de licor” delves into the raw vulnerability of heartbreak, capturing a timeless story of love and loss, elevated by the unmistakable voice of Preciado and the signature brass arrangements that define La Original.
The newly released music video, now streaming on the band’s official YouTube channel, brings that story to life with vivid cinematography set in the historic center of Mazatlán, Sinaloa. The location, rich with cultural heritage, adds depth to the visual storytelling, echoing the song’s themes of nostalgia and emotional resilience. Beyond its aesthetic beauty, the video carries profound symbolic weight—Julio Preciado was the first lead singer to record an album with La Original, making this reunion not only a musical collaboration but a full-circle moment decades in the making.
Produced by Rubén Andrey Lizárraga Barrett, Juan Luis Barboza Lizárraga, Carlos Antonio Lizárraga Barrett, and Enrique Alejandro Ortiz Ruiz, the project was brought to life under the banner of OBL Records. Oliver David Ocampo Quintero handled the arrangement, musical direction, recording engineering, mixing, and mastering, ensuring every note echoed with authenticity and craftsmanship. The release is edited by OBL Music Publishing and distributed by Believe.
“Traguitos de licor” is one of several commemorative releases marking La Original Banda El Limón’s 60th year—a milestone that few groups in any genre ever reach. With a career spanning generations, countless hits, and an unwavering connection to their audience, La Original remains a pillar of Mexican regional music.
This latest release not only bridges past and present but reaffirms the band’s dedication to honoring tradition while continuing to evolve. With “Traguitos de licor,” La Original Banda El Limón raises a glass to love, legacy, and the enduring power of music.
