Sones de Mexico Ensemble se especializa en el son mexicano, un género que abarca las raíces de la música de mariachi y otros estilos regionales. Como intérprete y artista discográfico, han desarrollado y popularizado muchos arreglos originales de melodías tradicionales mexicanas. También han experimentado interculturalmente con música sinfónica, irlandesa, folk, blues, C&W, jazz y rock, sin abandonar nunca sus raíces en el son mexicano.
