The history of Los Razos is similar to many Mexicans crossing the border to a better life and future opportunities in the US. Before they were musicians all of the Razos band members had various jobs, from mechanics to field workers some had to wash dishes and work as gardeners as many Mexicans who immigrate to the United States. Los Razos are composed of five Mexicans from Michoacan and Sinaloa. Sacramento and Reynaldo who are the band leaders have struggled to keep the group together.
