Bobby Pulido Wins Grammy After Winning Seat In Congress

Bobby Pulido won a Latin Grammy for best Tejano album on 12 November, days after winning Texas’s 15th Congressional District for the Democrats. The result unseated Republican incumbent Monica De La Cruz, and Pulido says he is retiring from music to focus on public service.

The 53-year-old’s third Latin Grammy recognised “Bobby Pulido & Friends: Una Tuya y Una Mía”, recorded at concerts in Monterrey in December 2024 and released in 2025. Pulido began his music career with the 1995 album “Desvelado” and released 15 more albums. He is due to take office in January; the article also recounts past scrutiny of his association with a convicted sex offender and of his social media posts.
