Feedback
- Trio de Sol is very professional. Very responsive when asking questions prior to the party. Although there was a list of songs somewhat planned, guests were throwing out all types of song names. Trio de Sol was able to accomodate the guests which was wonderful.
Everyone enjoyed them and the music.
Thank you -- Patty G, Daly City, CA, 10/8/2011
- We had Trio Del Sol play the cocktail hour at our wedding and they were absolutely fantastic. Mario was responsive to our inquiries and questions during the initial booking and follow-ups, they arrived on time, their music excellent and all three of them were very nice. Thanks Trio Del Sol for helping to make our wedding a fun-filled and memorable event! -- Suzanne C, Half Moon Bay, CA, 10/1/2011
- What can I say? They were amazing. Mario was a total professional around follow-up, scheduling, confirming and the trio arrived right on time. They are so talented and literally made our birthday party. Made my mom cry (it was her birthday). They were gracious, lovely with our guests. Their outfits were great. My guests loved them. I would highly recommend them for your event. -- Vanessa H, San Francisco, CA, 10/8/2011
- 5 across the board! Great music, sound and accommodations! -- Liliana M, Gonzales, CA, 10/15/2011
- super fun & great Trio. It was between a band of three (Trio) for a great price or a band of 7 (Mariachi) for a whole lot more. Mind you, this is a "house" party. Super glad I chose Sol De mexico. They were right on time, costumes looking sharp & made my mom cry as they entered singing "Las Mananitas." Mario is very good about getting back to your texts/phone calls & making sure everyone has a great time at the party. They're acoustic speakers & microphones sure made a difference & we probably had the whole block wondering what the special occasion was. Overall, everone loved the band, including my old school, traditional mexican grandmother. great job you guys! -- Natalie M, San Francisco, CA, 10/22/2011
- We enjoyed the group very much!
They were punctual and very communicative with e-mail prior to event!
At the event they were friendly!
Highly recommend ! -- Joanne G, Sunnyvale, CA, 10/22/2011
- Trio Sol De Mexico arrived to my function early and warmed up prior to the event. During their performance they were very accomodating to song suggestions by party goers. I especially like that they were flexiable with their schedule as when I asked for them to continue past their original contract time they accepted and made my party that much better. THANKS GUYS!!!!! -- Ryan O, Belmont, CA, 10/16/2011
- It was my first time using this band and I could not be more pleased! Amazing, entertaining, and very professional! I will call them for my next party! My friends have their cards and we cannot wait to see them play live again! Thank you for making my parents wedding vow renewals so special! God Bless -- Natalie C, Carmel, CA, 10/9/2011
- Trio Sol De Mexico did a fantastic job. So, I had originally booked another, less expensive band, but that band lacked communication. And through the entire booking process I was able to keep in contact with Sr. Hernandez of Trio. The fact that Trio kept in contact with me, were cordial, and accommodating made me cancel my plans with the unmentioned Mariachi band and book Trio. Our sound system for the ceremony wasn't working and Trio stepped in with no questions and helped to make our wedding run smoothly. Everyone LOVED them. So great! In the end, do not hesitate, cost may be an issue (with ANY mariachi band), but Trio is worth it, a million times worth it! -- Rachelle E, Hollister, CA, 9/24/2011
- Mario, Salvador & Luis are the epitome of professionalism. They arrived on time, played beautifully and performed every request we asked of them. They were unbelievably kind and welcoming to all of our guests and truly we couldn't have asked for more. I will not need to search through other bands next time we book Mariachi, I will just give Mario a call and know that Trio Sol de Mexico will take care of the rest. Excellent Experience! Thanks Gentlemen! -- William Z, San Juan Bautista, CA, 10/29/2011
- This is a very talented group of individuals. You could definitely tell that they knew what they were doing and they were a very hospitable bunch. Their playing was great, and they also offered a great selection in music. We look forward to hiring them again in the future, and I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a Trio. -- Fernando M, San Jose, CA, 11/2/2011
- Mario and his group were wonderful...They showed up early to get ready...played special requests for everyone and even had one of our guest up singing with them..Definately plan on hiring them again. -- Billie Ann P, Escalon, CA, 12/8/2011
- Trio Sol De Mexico was professional. they arrive on time and quietly set up.
They played guest requests. It make my mothers 94 birthday very special. -- Rosamaria F, San Francisco, CA, 12/9/2011
- They were wonderful! We hired them for our cocktail hour and from our guest, we heard that they were wonderful and did a great job with the song selections! Our guest loved them and my husband & I were able to enjoy some them as well because we actually made it to the cocktail hour in time too!
Thank you again and we would recommend Trio Del Sol anytime!
Olivas/Davis wedding 12/23/11. -- Kimi D, Carmel, CA, 12/23/2011
- Mario and his group were very professional, talented and accommodative. They are very friendly and funny. It was a great party with them present. It was so nice that the way Mario was giving introduction to the songs and getting people involved. -- Padmaja R, San Jose, CA, 1/1/2012
- Trio Sol De Mexico is wonderful. Beautiful voices, beautiful music. The gentlemen are professional, on-time and a pleasure to work with. Next time I will sing with them. Thank you for adding just the right touch of ambiance to our event. -- Emily C, San Jose, CA, 2/1/2012
- Trio de Sol...WOW...amazing. Mario and his chorus simply lighted up my 80 year-old parents hearts with their heartfelt music, conversation, and choice of songs. Mario has an innate and amazing ability to be incredibly perceptive, intuitive, and endearing as he engages with his crowd. Listening to Mario's choice of songs, he somehow knew the specific songs of my parents' courtship and for the first time in our lives, my siblings and I saw my parents cry happy tears as they looked into each other's eyes remembering fond memories that only they two hold in their hearts. We will never forget the beauty of Trio de Sol's performance...totally lovely and unforgettable. -- Leticia A, San Francisco, CA, 2/4/2012
- I can't say enough about Trio Sol De Mexico. My brothers and I are extremely grateful that we were able to both bring joy to our ailing sister and to celebrate the birthday of our niece, her daughter. Their performance was key to our community celebration of my sister's life and the celebration of my niece's fifteenth birthday. Their selection of music, presentation, ability to "work" the room brought in heart and soul. My nephews experienced Mariachi music for the first time. It was also a delight to see our guests delight in the last love song dedicated to my sister and her husband. There was not a dry eye in the house. Muchisimas Gracias! Yvonne Martinez -- Yvonne M, Santa Cruz, CA, 2/18/2012
- On time professional and very satisfied with their performance they new every song we wanted would definitely hire them again...family was very satisfied.. -- Johnny G, Watsonville, CA, 2/12/2012
- 5 out of 5 all the way! I hired Trio Sol de Mexico to surprise serenade my husband on Valentine's Day, they were amazing! They showed up in full Mariachi regalia looking very sharp and sang him beautiful love songs. It was amazing!!! Very special. Highly recommend them. -- Noelle S, Santa Cruz, CA, 2/14/2012
- Customer service was initially great. However the group showed up at the wrong location and then tried to blame me when I had (2) confirmed emails acknowledging the location change due to rain. I was screamed at "what part of I can't find the email don't you understand!"-which is #1 just plain disrespectful to anyone, and #2 not appropriate to speak to a customer like that. I had only (1) minor special request which was to NOT play ANY sad songs and they played probably the saddest song possible-Amor Eterno. They are very talented, unfortunately they are just not good with logistics and details. The performance was great, but I'm not sure it was worth the stress. -- Venita V, San Jose, CA, 3/24/2012
- We hired them for our Mother's 50th Birthday and they were very accommodating. They had a great repertoire of songs and our guests highly enjoyed the entertainment during dinner. They were on time and very responsive. We highly recommend them. -- Cynthia G, Redwood City, CA, 2/25/2012
- These guys are great. They were the hit of the party and their energy filled the whole house. The 85 year old birthday girl was dancing and laughing from the moment they walked in the door. -- Don G, San Mateo, CA, 3/31/2012
- Great fun and very professional! They are very pleasant, courteous, sing amazingly and know lots of songs! I would recommend them to all my best friends! -- Cynthia P, Castro Valley, CA, 4/7/2012
- The musicians were very professional. I received a call two days before the event to confirm the time and place. They arrived early and started on time. The music was very good, not too loud. I would definitely use Trio Sol De Mexico at our next event. -- David H, Dublin, CA, 4/21/2012
- Trio Sol De Mexico was great! They were a perfect addition to our wedding cocktail party. I would absolutely hire them again. -- Brandi D, San Francisco, CA, 4/21/2012
- Trio Sol De Mexico did an outstanding job bringing our party to life. Everyone enjoyed the music and commented on how great they were. The songs were fun and they have wonderful voices- all of it was fantastic. -- Kendra N, Pleasanton, CA, 5/2/2012
- We had Trio Sol De Mexico for an official event with the Latino Caucus of the California State Assembly. I can only say, that if I ever need another Trio to perform for a work event or personal event, they will be the group I hire.!! They were professional, prompt, talented, friendly, and overall just an excellent choice. Our event was a huge success and they were the hit of the party. I would highly recommend Trio Sol de Mexico to anyone who is looking for a talented group of musicians that will make your event truly memorable!!! -- Adriana S, Sacramento, CA, 5/6/2012
- We were quite thrilled with Trio Sol de Mexico that played at our open house on May 5th for Cinco de Mayo. There music was fun, light hearted, made you want to get up and dance, (and some of our customers did.) The volume was perfect, never to loud or shrill! They are not the “typical” mariachi band that comes to mind, good for 15 minutes then you wish they would stop playing. The music had a Spanish flair but was modern and quite enjoyable, we did not want them to stop. Mucho thanks!
Martinelli Winery -- Debbie T, Windsor, CA, 5/5/2012
- Trio Sol de Mexico was great! They were so professional and punctual. Mario was easy to get a hold of. They arrived on time and everything was perfect. They made my 79 yr. old grandma so happy. They sang songs that she requested, she cried in joy, it reminded her of her childhood. It was simply beautiful all of us moms cried too. It was heartfelt. We also sang along with them. I wll surely hire them again. I will recommend them to anyone in search of a great Trio Mariachi!! Thanks once again for making her day special!! You guys were great!! <3 - =) -- MARISOL G, Morgan Hill, CA, 5/10/2012
- They were Great:) My mother Loved them. -- Jackie R, Concord, CA, 5/11/2012
- Trio Sol de Mexico always provides over-the-top entertainment, but this time they really out-did themselves. Mario Hernandez and his trio engaged nearly 500 elementary school students and their mothers in beautiful music to honor the mothers on Dia de las madres. The entire community loved the performance. The parents said it was the best Mother's Day celebration ever at our school! It is a pleasure working with Trio Sol de Mexico to book and plan events. Mario is extremely accommodating, understanding, helpful and delightful to work with. Book them! You will be thrilled that you did. -- Donna T, San Jose, CA, 5/10/2012
- They were great and added a lot to our Volunter recognition event. they made everyone feel special by going from table to table serenading the attendees. -- Kathi H, San Ramon, CA, 4/21/2011
- Trio Sol De Mexico was great to work with, very professional and talented. I would recommend them to anyone looking for great performers. The party was a success thanks to how accomodating they were in terms of the music they played. I was also very pleased that they were willing to travel to Fresno being that it is a bit far from them. Everyone at the party enjoyed their great music and if I ever need to book another trio they will definately be the ones I would choose. -- Gabriela M, Fresno, CA, 4/30/2011
- Trio Sol De Mexico was AWESOME!!! They sang beautifully & engaged the audience to sing along. They were on time & very professional. I would & will hire them again. I have seen several trio's in my time, but Trio Sol De Mexico is by far the best period... #1 in the bay.
I would highly recommend them for any occasion. Thanks Mario !!!
My Best,
Henry Cortez -- Henry C, Tracy, CA, 4/9/2011
