Elizabeth Gutierrez and Texas Fire Definitely On Fire!

Since signing with independent record label, Ultrax Records, and having their debut album, TU AMIGA, released in July of 1997, Elizabeth Gutierrez and Texas Fire have been receiving critical acclaim as Tejano music's hottest new act. Their first single, "Disco Rayado," became their first national hit on the international music trade publication, Radio y Musica, and currently they have two songs: "Tu Amiga" and their current single, "Te Dare Mi Corazon," which are both close to charting nationally on Radio y Musica.
