Latin music belongs at the center of Austin's cultural conversation.
Unidos Por La Música was launched in 2023 with a simple idea: Austin's Latin music community deserves stages that reflect the depth of its talent and the breadth of its audience. From cumbia and conjunto to tejano and regional Mexican — each event is built around bilingual programming, fair artist compensation, and a space where every generation feels welcome.
Supported across two grant cycles — Austin's Live Music Fund and the Elevate Grant.
