Leti De La Vega

 

Teresa Leticia De La Vega presents her family’s unique blend of original Tejano music.

The Sanchez-De La Vega family has played music for generations. Leti was born in

Harlingen, Texas. She spent her summers in Mexico at Rancho Viejo where she absorbed

music from Mexico and Texas.

 

Her music reflects the influences of both cultures.  Leti sings is in both English and Spanish.
