Death is often described as untimely, a word that especially fits the loss of a musician, as it breaks the rhythm, the flow of music as well as the keeping of time.
As reported in local media including El Rrun Rrun, Jimmy Gonzalez of Grupo Mazz passed away Wednesday in San Antonio, while visiting relatives on his way back to Brownsville.
Grupo Mazz won a total of six Latin Grammy Awards, all for Best Tejano Album.
The group was scheduled to appear in Brownsville for the Hernandez-Brownsville Music Fest 8/11/18 at the Kraken Lounge and Market Square.
