Esta Noche drops us right into the neon glow of a late-night adventure. Still dizzy from first impressions and a bit of alcohol, the singer invites a new crush to “go cruising” and see where the night leads. She’s lost one of her “six senses”—the sense of restraint—and what’s left is pure feeling, a magnetic pull that promises thrills before sunrise. Every line pulses with that mix of daring and flirtation that only happens when the music is loud, the car engine is running, and anything seems possible.
But the song isn’t just a reckless love note. Between the bass lines and accordion riffs, Yahritza lays out a candid disclaimer: this is temporary. She admits that last night’s charm came soaked in tequila, that commitment is nowhere on her roadmap, and that morning-after heartbreak may be inevitable. The result is a bittersweet Regional Mexican groove where excitement and honesty collide—perfect for learners who want to feel the language’s raw emotion while humming along to a story of irresistible yet fleeting passion.
Yahritza y Su Esencia is an American regional Mexican trio from Yakima Valley, Washington, blending traditional ranchera sounds with urban sierreño rhythms. Comprising siblings Yahritza MartĂnez (vocals, acoustic guitar), Armando "Mando" MartĂnez (twelve-string guitar), and Jairo MartĂnez (acoustic bass), the band burst onto the scene in 2022.
Their breakout hit "Soy el Único," written by Yahritza at just fourteen, climbed the Billboard Global 200 and earned them recognition at the 23rd Annual Latin Grammy Awards, with nominations for Best New Artist and Best Norteño Album. Yahritza y Su Esencia continues to captivate audiences with their heartfelt lyrics and fresh take on regional Mexican music.
