Bobby Pulido

Bobby Pulido is a Mexican-American Tejano singer from Edinburg, Texas, and one of the genre's leading male voices since the mid-1990s. He is the son of Tejano singer Roberto Pulido.

Origins

Born in 1973, he performed with his father's band, Los Clásicos, before launching his own group and signing with EMI Latin in 1995. His debut album Desvelado came out that same year.

The sound

His music is classic Tejano, mixing cumbia rhythms, ranchera and romantic ballads, with accordion and keyboards leading the arrangements. His smooth, warm voice suits both dance tracks and love songs.

Legacy

He won Male Vocalist and Male Entertainer of the Year at the 1998 Tejano Music Awards, and Latin Grammys for Best Tejano Album in 2022 and 2025. He won the category again at the 2026 Latin Grammys for Bobby Pulido & Friends Una Tuya y Una Mía (Vol. 2/En Vivo), and in November 2026 he was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives for Texas's 15th district.
