14-Year-Old Mariachi Prodigy Eduardo Antonio Treviño Shares Journey, New Music on ‘The Bo Corona Show’

At just 14 years old, Eduardo Antonio Treviño is already living a career many artists spend decades chasing.

The Houston-based mariachi prodigy—who first picked up a microphone at just three years old—continues to build momentum in the Tejano and regional Mexican music scenes, most recently joining The Bo Corona Show to reflect on his journey, his mentorship with La Mafia, and the release of his debut single, “Mi Amor Eres Tú.”

Treviño, who gained national attention on America’s Got Talent Season 18 by finishing in the Top 5 of his semifinal week, carries a deep-rooted musical legacy. His passion for mariachi runs in the family, tracing back to his great-grandfather, who recorded music in 1926 but ultimately had to walk away from his dream due to financial hardship.

Now, nearly a century later, Treviño is carrying that dream forward on bigger stages than ever before.

Guided by Tejano Legends

In November 2023, Treviño signed with Grammy-winning Tejano group La Mafia, marking a major milestone in his young career. Under the mentorship of Oscar De La Rosa and Armando Lichtenberger Jr., the teen singer is developing his artistry while bridging the gap between traditional mariachi and Tejano music.

During his interview with Bo Corona, Treviño shared how the relationship began organically during rehearsals at La Mafia’s studio ahead of his America’s Got Talent appearance.

“Ever since then, he’s been guiding me,” Treviño said of Lichtenberger. “He was producing me, and I’m always just so glad to have his support, have his guidance, his advice all the time. He’s great. He’s awesome.”

Beyond production, Treviño emphasized the importance of learning the business side of music—something his mentors have made a priority.

“He’s just taught me a lot about the ins and outs of the industry… how he brought other people up,” he explained.

A Natural on Stage

Despite his age, Treviño performs with the confidence of a seasoned artist. When asked if he still gets nervous, his answer reflected years of experience beyond his years.

“After doing it quite some time, it feels like the stage becomes your home,” he said. “You don’t feel really the nervousness anymore.”

That comfort has translated into performances across Texas and beyond, including standout moments like singing the national anthem at a Houston Astros game—an experience he described as something he “always loves.”

“Mi Amor Eres Tú” — A First Step Forward

Treviño’s debut single, “Mi Amor Eres Tú,” represents the first official release from his collaboration with La Mafia. Written by Jorge Luis Piloto and Raúl del Sol, the track captures a youthful, heartfelt story of first love.

“It’s a little puppy love song,” Treviño shared. “It’s about this little boy that meets this girl… it’s his first love. He’s super in love with her.”

The song blends mariachi influences with a polished Tejano production style, signaling the direction Treviño hopes to take as he builds his sound.

“I am very honored to present it not only to my amazing city and my amazing people of Houston, but to the whole world,” he said. “I want this to be my first hit.”

Celebrating Culture and Looking Ahead

As Cinco de Mayo approaches, Treviño described the season as more than just a busy performance schedule—it’s a celebration of culture.

“I feel for everybody… not only the gigs, but just celebrating the culture,” he said. “It’s amazing. It’s everyone’s Super Bowl.”

With a strong support system, a growing fanbase, and guidance from Tejano legends, Eduardo Antonio Treviño is positioning himself as one of the next breakout voices in the genre.

And if his early success is any indication, this is only the beginning.
