Father-Son Farewell Collaboration

What makes this tour particularly meaningful is the participation of Roberto Pulido, Bobby’s father and a pioneering figure in Tejano music. The multi-generational performance represents a full-circle moment for the Pulido musical legacy, allowing fans to witness both father and son on stage together as Bobby prepares to transition away from music. The post indicated that a full conversation with Bobby Pulido would be available on YouTube, giving fans more insight into his decision to step away from performing and his future plans.

Final Musical Chapter Before Political Aspirations

Pulido announced his retirement from music in late 2023, revealing plans to pursue political office in 2026. According to recent posts, the Tejano star has signed with Fonovisa/Universal for a double album and another unreleased project before finally closing his chapter as a singer.

Before ending his musical journey, Pulido is releasing an album titled ‘Bobby & Friends – Una Tuya y Una Mía’ (One Yours and One Mine). The first single ‘Desvelado’ is scheduled to release on April 22, featuring a collaboration with Spanish singer David Bisbal. This project was recorded live at Auditorio Cumbres in Monterrey during what Pulido described as ‘five magical concerts, full of memories, emotions, and music that marked my life.’ The second single from the album, titled ‘Dígale,’ is set to release on April 24, also featuring David Bisbal. These releases demonstrate Pulido’s commitment to leaving fans with new music before his retirement.

Promotional Tour And Ticket Sales

Promotion for the San Antonio concert has been in full swing, with several posts encouraging fans to secure tickets through official channels. Pulido even created a special flash sale with the promo code ‘BIRTHDAY’ for fans to purchase tickets at a discount.

In a recent post, Pulido warned fans about fake accounts, emphasizing that he would never ask for money, sell tickets through social media, or request private messages. He clarified that he maintains only one official account on each platform, including Facebook, Instagram, Twitter (now X), TikTok, and YouTube.

Legacy In Tejano Music

Bobby Pulido rose to prominence in the 1990s and is considered one of the most influential Tejano artists of his generation. Born in Edinburg, Texas, to Tejano music legend Roberto Pulido, Bobby followed in his father’s footsteps while developing his own distinctive style that helped modernize the genre. His debut album ‘Desvelado’ (1995) became a breakthrough success, with the title track becoming one of his signature songs. Throughout his career, Pulido has been known for blending traditional Tejano sounds with contemporary elements, helping to bring the genre to younger audiences.

His farewell tour represents the end of a significant era in Tejano music as he prepares to pursue political aspirations. The tour’s name, ‘Por La Puerta Grande’ (Through the Grand Door), suggests Pulido’s intention to conclude his musical career with dignity and celebration rather than simply fading away.

Fans can purchase tickets for the San Antonio show at the Boeing Center through Pulido’s official website (www.bobbypulido.com) or through official ticketing partners. Given the significance of this farewell tour and the father-son dynamic, the event is expected to be an emotional and memorable night for Tejano music enthusiasts.
