Nodal began his music career at the age of 17 and became successful as he broke new ground with his unique style of fusing classical Mariachi sounds with hints of the accordion. This world-renowned sound has brought Mexican music a new combination to what is called “Mariacheño,” which audiences of all ages enjoy.
Nodal represents Caborca, Sonora located in northern Mexico. He comes from a family of musicians which has led to becoming a musical phenomenon. His first single launched in 2016 titled, Adios Amor, became a global success and helped him become recognized in Mexico and the United States. In 2019, he released Ahora, AYAYAYAY! in 2020, and his latest Recordando a una Leyenda in 2021. All have been successful hits on all platforms internationally.
His song, Me Dejé Llevar became a No.1 for 72 weeks on Billboard’s Regional Mexican Album chart. This led to a breaking record in the history of the male artist chart. He has collaborated with artists such as Sebastián Yatra, Piso 21, Ángela Aguilar, and Gera MX.
Nodal’s latest single, “Ya No Somos Ni Seremos,” became his biggest debut as a solo artist after debuting in the Top 10 of Billboard’s Hot Latin Songs. It has received a Golden certification in Mexico and the music video trended in 19 countries the day it premiered. He recently premiered his duet with Maná, in a new version of the band’s hit, “Te Lloré un Río.”
