Mazz
Mazz ( MAHz) was an American Tejano band formed in Brownsville, Texas in 1977. It was founded by its foremost members, singer Joe López and guitarist and arranger Jimmy González. The band became known for its unique and innovative style of rancheras and cumbia. After signing with and moving to the then-upcoming record label Capitol/EMI Latin in 1989, they would become one of the Tejano genre's most popular bands during its 1990s golden age.
Mazz disbanded in 1998, with frontmen López and González going on to form, respectively, Joe López y la Nueva Imagen Mazz in 1998 and Jimmy González y Grupo Mazz in 1999.
In 2006, López was convicted of and imprisoned for sexually assaulting his niece. After his release in 2018, he formed another group, Joe López y Grupo Mazz and continues to write, record, and perform.
