Cathy Ragland is an Assistant Professor in Music and the Arts at SUNY/Empire State College. She is a former music critic for the San Antonio Express-News, Seattle Times and Austin American-Statesman, where, among many things, she wrote about Tex-Mex and NorteÑa music. She is also a former folklorist and co-founder of the Mariachi Academy of New York, an after-school program in East Harlem.

“Ragland’s ethnomusicological approach to mÚsica norteÑa's evolution and its contemporary relevance, brings the topic to life. The music is clearly a prism to examining a broad swath of social, political, economic, cultural, and communications issues. Her musical analysis is fresh, rare, and valuable.”-Daniel Sheehy, Director and Curator, Smithsonian Folkways Recordings
