La Dinastía de Tuzantla, Michoacán, or simply La Dinastía de Tuzantla, is a regional Mexican band from Tuzantla, Michoacán, Mexico, that was founded in 1987. It specializes in the Tierra Caliente genre, and was created by the Toledo family, who are also members of the group.^[1] Their 2005 live production, En Vivo, landed the number seven spot on Billboard's Regional Mexican charts; it eventually peaked at number seven on the Hot Latin Albums chart.^[2]

The Tuzantla-raised group alongside Beto y sus Canarios are two of the leading acts of the genre.^[3]^[4]

History

La Dinastía de Tuzantla was founded by the Toledo family, young musicians who also gave it its current appearance, including the setting, style, shape and number of current members that associated it with the place of their origin, the State of Michoacán in the Mexican tierra caliente region. La Dinastia was named after the dynasty of the Toledo family.^[5] Their albums and songs have ranked on the Billboard Latin charts in the United States.^[6]

In 1993, they received a platinum record for the high sales of the album Y Ahora con Banda. In addition to a silver record awarded by the Discos Ciudad record company for their career, afterwards the recognitions continued for their sales that varied between 50,000 and 70,000 copies, but it was not until the album De Todo Corazón that they received a gold record for high sales. They also received another three gold records for their albums La Máxima Emoción, Jalando a Todos and Directo a los Exitos. In 2001, Es Grande was released; an album that contained one of the band's biggest hits, the song "Te Quiero Para Mi", which would sell more than 200,000 copies, receiving double gold status.

The Tuzantla-raised group entered the Billboard charts in 2005. Their 2007 album, ¡Que Chulada!, spent four weeks on the Top Latin Albums in early 2008 and sold 21,000 U.S. copies.^[7]

La Dinastía de Tuzantla recorded Maldito Texto, which was an award-winning Song at the 2009 BMI Latin Awards.^[8]

On June 11, 2020, a pillar of La Dinastía de Tuzantla died, as was Israel Aguirre López "El Raya" who served as an announcer for the band for more than three decades.^[9]^[10]
