Banda Sinaloense MS de Sergio Lizárraga, or simply Banda MS, is a Mexican banda group from Mazatlán, Sinaloa, founded in 2003. The MS stands for Mazatlán, Sinaloa. It was created by brothers Sergio and Alberto Lizárraga, who are also members of the group. They debuted in 2004 with their album No Podrás. Their album Qué Bendición reached number one on the Billboard Latin albums chart in the United States.
History Julión Álvarez served as a vocalist for Banda MS from 2003 to 2007, after which point he left the band to become a solo artist. On 12 February 2016 the band received an award from Monitor Latino for their song "Solo Con Verte", which was a number one song for twelve consecutive weeks on the chart. They received the award at the Verizon Theatre at Grand Prairie, which also marked their first concert in their United States tour.
In July 2016, Banda MS's lead singer, Alan Ramirez, was shot in the neck in Mexico City while traveling to see his wife at a local hotel.
