Clave Especial perform at the Rolling Stone Future of Music during the SXSW Conference & Festivals held at Austin City Limits Live at the Moody Theater on March 13, 2026 in Austin, Texas. Samantha Tellez for Rolling Stone Clave Especial‘s new EP is an eclectic Street Mob Records party. The Mexican-American corrido trio, made up of Alejandro Ahumada, his cousin Leonardo Lomeli, and Rogelio Gonzalez, have released AfterAfter, a five-track collection that feature Fuerza Regida, Los Gemelos de Sinaloa, Chino Pacas, and Chuyin.
Each collaboration drives forward the mission of AfterAfter to “bring together artists from diverse regions who share the same creative energy,” according to a press release. Clave Especial hail from Salinas, California while Fuerza Regida rep the sounds coming from Southern California, Chino Pacas brings the flavor of central Mexico, Chuyin, and both Los Gemelos de Sinaloa and Chuyin offer a Sinoloan touch to their corridos. The move to emphasize these regions “reflects how regional Mexican music is being shaped today,” creating a “constantly evolving sound.”
