Ram Herrera
45 years. A living part of Tejano history.
Known as “The Most Wanted Man” and “The Outlaw of Tejano Music,” Ram Herrera is one of the genre's most celebrated and recognizable voices. The San Antonio native began his professional career in 1980 as the lead vocalist for David Lee Garza y Los Musicales before launching his solo career and forming Ramiro Herrera y Montana — later known as the Outlaw Band. His commanding stage presence, smooth vocal style, and ability to move effortlessly between Tejano, cumbia, ranchera, and heartfelt ballads have made him a favorite across generations.
Throughout a career spanning more than 45 years, Herrera has built an enduring catalog that includes fan favorites such as “Rosas Para Una Rosa,” “La Mancha,” “Entre Cantina y Cantina,” and “Neverending Love.” His acclaimed recordings have earned him one GRAMMY nomination and three Latin GRAMMY nominations, including recognition for Ingrata, Mucho Más Que Amor, Back on Track, and Ram Herrera and the Outlaw Band.
Herrera's contributions extend far beyond the stage. A respected humanitarian and cultural ambassador, he has used his influence to support charitable causes while proudly representing San Antonio and the rich traditions of Tejano music. In 2025, he received the Tejano Music Awards Lifetime Achievement Award and was formally recognized by the City of San Antonio, Bexar County, and the State of Texas for his extraordinary contributions to music and culture.
More than an entertainer, Ram Herrera is a living part of Tejano history — an artist whose unmistakable voice, resilience, and connection with his audience continue to preserve the genre's legacy while inspiring its future.
