Regional styles of Mexican music vary greatly from state to state. Norteño, banda, duranguense, Son mexicano and other Mexican country music genres are often known as regional Mexican music because each state produces different musical sounds and lyrics. Baja California Baja California has a characteristic style derived from the huapango norteño, known as calabaceado. Calabaceado is a type dance that was created in the 1940s based in the fact that "norteño music" and typical cowboy cultures were being mixed and this dance shows the mixture of both styles. Other norteño forms are also popular, such as Vals Norteño, Chotis, Mazurka and mariachi. Chiapas Chiapas has produced many marimba bands and artists, such as Marimbas de Chiapas. Chiapas has its own "son" tradition (son chiapaneco), often played on the marimba. Mexican waltzes are also particularly popular here. Chihuahua Chihuahua norteño is unique in that it uses the saxophone in addition to the traditional accordion, and thus has two lead instruments. Zacatecas norteño is similar to norteña chihuahuense. Durango Durango is widely famous for its many duranguense (Durangan) bands. Durangense bands normally consist of multiple band members because of the instruments they need to make the music. Duranguense bands are basically considered música norteña, but uses brass and wind instruments instead of guitars and accordions. Duranguense bands are often called Banda … or Los … de Durango. Guerrero Guerrero has its own traditional "son" tradition, known as "Son Guerrerense", which has a violin lead, with guitar and percussion for the rhythm section. The son music from Tierra Caliente is very closely related to this. "Gustos" are another very popular song form here, and these are played at half-tempo (in relation to the sones). Violinist Juan Reynoso is a renowned interpreter of the music from this region. Many musical bands sound comes from Norteño music by way of Michoacán, yet also the rich folk music tradition of this backcountry mountainous state informs original compositions (ex. Modesta Ayala). The Jaripeo is a most powerful influence on Guerrero banda music today. Jaripeos are the popular local musical bull riding events featuring young bull riders, a 12+ piece brass band, cattle hands, rodeo announcer, dancing, clowns, families, kids, village officials, and drunks. Top Bandas in northern Guerrero are Autoridad de la Sierra, La Banda Dominguera, Los Indomables. Typical professional village bands would be Santa Cecilia (Axixintla) and La Rancherita (Tecalpulco) In every town and city in
