NEW BRAUNFELS — The Gámez-Cuéllar brothers will perform with country singer Kacey Musgraves at Gruene Hall in New Braunfels from May 3 to May 5. The band will take the stage at 8 p.m. on those nights, followed by Musgraves at 9 p.m.

Each of the three concerts is sold out, according to Gruene Hall's website. The venue, first built in 1878, draws music fans to hundreds of shows annually. Musgraves posted on Instagram, "Great so come on the road with me."

The teen brothers — Antonio, 18, Caleb, 14, and Joshua, 12 — are members of the McAllen High School Mariachi Oro band, which has won eight state championships, performed at Carnegie Hall and visited the White House. The brothers traveled to Washington, D.C., in summer 2025 after their high school mariachi ensemble won a state competition in Texas. Their Republican congressional representative, Monica De La Cruz, invited the ensemble to the U.S. House floor in recognition of the win.

The three brothers were temporarily detained by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement in February. The family was detained on February 25 following a routine check-in with immigration officials. The two younger brothers and their parents were held at a family detention center in Dilley, Texas. Antonio Gámez-Cuéllar was separated from his family and placed in a different adult detention facility, according to Congressman Joaquin Castro.

Luis Antonio Martínez said in February that ICE had instructed the family to report to an appointment where they were then detained. The family entered the United States in 2023 on an asylum claim after fleeing cartel threats in the Mexican state of San Luis Potosí, doing so through the CBP One app. After settling in McAllen, Texas, the family attended scheduled court check-ins.

The Department of Homeland Security said the family was living in the country without legal permission, and that the parents chose to bring their adult son and two children with them. The brothers and their parents were released from ICE custody in March after bipartisan backlash to their detention.

"I have repeatedly urged that enforcement target those who actually threaten our communities, not good, law-abiding, talented people who are working through the legal process," De La Cruz said.
