This year saw two more wins for Martin H. Solis, Jr., a bajo sexto player and vocalist, who, outside of the Tex-Mex music scene of Southeast Michigan, received little recognition for his talents until the last years of his life. In July of this year, Solis was inducted into the Texas Conjunto Music Hall of Fame in San Benito, Texas, and in August, a street in his longtime home of Melvindale, Mich. was renamed in his honor.

Born in San Antonio in 1929, Solis moved to Michigan in 1942 when his family joined the stream of migrant laborers heading north to work in seasonal agriculture. The family soon settled in Detroit. After serving in the U.S. Army for two years at Fort Rucker in Alabama and a brief stint with a vocal trio, in the early-1950s Solis formed his first conjunto, Conjunto Los Primos, alongside his cousin, Willy Huron. Theirs was among the first conjuntos based in Detroit.

In 1961, Solis and Huron moved to Oklahoma City for work, continuing to play music on the side. In 1964, Solis moved his family back to Detroit, while Huron stayed behind in Oklahoma City. Solis fell right back into the music scene in Detroit, playing with many local musicians over the years, especially accordionist Manuel “El Lobo” Rivera. He later sang for the conjunto of his eldest son, Martin S. Solis, Jr., also a bajo sexto player.

In all the decades of Solis’s musical career, he never released his music on record. With the fear that his father’s importance to the musical history of Detroit’s Mexican community would therefore fade into obscurity, his youngest son, Frank, began a campaign in the 2010s to cement his father’s legacy.

The accolades began in 2017 with his induction into the Tejano R.O.O.T.S. Hall of Fame in Alice, Texas, followed by a declaration in 2018 of Martin Huron Solis, Jr. Day in Melvindale, and receipt of the Michigan Heritage Award in 2019 from the Michigan Traditional Arts Program at Michigan State University.

Though Solis passed away in 2019, the honors continued. In 2020, Jack White’s Third Man Records released an album of rehearsal tapes discovered in Solis’s attic, some dating back to the 1950s – Solis was at least able to hear a test pressing of the album before he passed. In 2023, Martin was honored on an official State of Michigan Historical Marker commemorating Mexican and Mexican American migration to Detroit and the emergence of the Tex-Mex music scene.

On the afternoon of Saturday, August 17, less than a month after his induction into the Texas Conjunto Music Hall of Fame, a crowd of around 30 gathered to celebrate the renaming of B St., a one-block stretch that joins Roger St. and Stanley Ave., just north of West Outer Drive in Melvindale. This location was chosen for its proximity to the home on Stanley Ave., bought in 1964, where Solis and his wife, Anna, raised their three sons, Martin, Pete, and Frank, and where they continued to live until his passing.

During the unveiling ceremony, Solis’s life was celebrated by Wayne County Commissioner Cara Clemente, as well as supporters of the Solis family and fixtures at Tejano dances in Southeast Michigan, José and Laura Chapa. Frank Solis reflected on the journey from Solis’ initial induction into the Tejano R.O.O.T.S. Hall of Fame to the renaming of a Melvindale street in his honor. “I’m so honored that my dad is part of [the Texas Conjunto Music Hall of Fame],” he said. “He’s up there with the legends, but then I think now, he is [one]. He deserves to be there.”

The ceremony concluded with the unveiling of a new street sign marking the intersection of Martin H. Solis Jr. St. and Stanley Ave. Afterward, attendees danced in the street to songs from Solis’ album.

Festivities continued throughout the weekend. On Saturday evening, a celebratory dance took place at the Prestige Banquet Hall in Allen Park, MI, with live music from Juaquin Chavez y Los Conjunto Boys of Sarita, Texas. On Sunday, the inaugural Martin H. Solis, Jr. Tejano Festival took place outside of Parts & Labor Bar in Melvindale with live music from local group, Grupo Vicio.

Commenting on the significance of the weekend’s events, Wayne County Commissioner Clemente said, “Having this street naming in Melvindale was very important to the family to honor their father, Martin Solis.” She continued, “Their hope is that more people in the community will learn about his legacy and Tejano music.”

Richard Cruz Dávila, PhD, is a researcher with the Julian Samora Research Institute at Michigan State University. He is currently writing a book on the history of Tejano music in Michigan and the Midwest.

Calle renombrada en honor a Martin H. Solis, Jr.

La Ciudad de Melvindale honra al pionero de los conjuntos en Michigan Martin H. Solis, Jr. al cambiarle el nombre a una calle en su honor.

Este año se han visto dos reconocimientos más, del intérprete de bajo sexto y vocalista Martin H. Solís Jr., quien fuera de la escena musical tex-mex del sudeste de Michigan, recibió poco reconocimiento por su talento, cambiando en los últimos años de su vida. En julio de este año, Solís fue incluido en el Salón de la Fama de la Música Conjunto de Texas en San Benito, Texas, y en agosto, la calle de su antigua casa en Melvindale, Michigan, fue renombrada en su honor.

Nacido en San Antonio en 1929, Solís se mudó a Michigan en 1942 cuando su familia se unió a la corriente de trabajadores migrantes que se dirigían al norte por la agricultura estacional. La familia pronto se estableció en Detroit. Después de servir en el ejército de los EE. UU. durante dos años en Fort Rucker, Alabama, y ​​de una breve temporada con un trío vocal, a principios de la década de 1950 Solís formó su primer conjunto, Conjunto Los Primos, al lado de Willy Huron (su primo), siendo uno de los primeros conjuntos nacidos en Detroit.

En 1961, Solís y Huron se mudaron a trabajar a Oklahoma City pero continuaron tocando su música. En 1964, Solís se movió de nuevo a Detroit con su familia, mientras que Huron se quedó en Oklahoma City. Solís volvió a la escena musical de Detroit y tocó con muchos músicos locales a lo largo de los años, especialmente con el acordeonista Manuel “El Lobo” Rivera. Más tarde cantó para el conjunto de su hijo mayor, Martin S. Solís, Jr., también intérprete de bajo sexto.

En las décadas de carrera musical de Solís, nunca se publicó ningún disco. Pero su hijo menor Frank, con temor de que la importancia de su padre para la historia musical de la comunidad mexicana de Detroit se perdiera, comenzó una campaña en la década de 2010 para cimentar el legado de su padre.

Los elogios comenzaron en 2017 con su incorporación al Salón de la Fama Tejano R.O.O.T.S. en Alice, Texas, seguido por una declaración en 2018 del Día de Martin Huron Solís, Jr. en Melvindale, y la recepción del Premio a la Herencia de Michigan en 2019 del Programa de Artes Tradicionales de Michigan en la Universidad Michigan State.

Aunque Solís falleció en 2019, los honores continuaron. En 2020, Third Man Records de Jack White lanzó un álbum de cintas de ensayo descubiertas en el ático de Solís, algunas de las cuales datan de la década de 1950; Solís al menos pudo escuchar una prueba de la impresión del álbum antes de morir. En 2023, Martin fue honrado en un marcador histórico oficial del estado de Michigan que conmemora la migración mexicana y mexicoamericana a Detroit y el surgimiento de la escena musical Tex-Mex.

En la tarde del sábado 17 de agosto, menos de un mes después de su incorporación al Salón de la Fama de la Música Conjunto de Texas, una multitud de alrededor de 30 personas se reunió para celebrar el cambio de nombre de la calle B, un tramo de una cuadra que une la calle Roger y la avenida Stanley, justo al norte de West Outer Drive en Melvindale. Esta ubicación fue elegida por su proximidad a la casa en la Avenida Stanley, comprada en 1964, donde Soliz y su esposa, Anna, criaron a sus tres hijos, Martin, Pete y Frank, y donde continuaron viviendo hasta su fallecimiento.

Durante la ceremonia de inauguración, la vida de Solís fue celebrada por la comisionada del condado de Wayne, Cara Clemente, así como por los seguidores de la familia Solís y los asistentes habituales a los bailes tejanos en el sureste de Michigan, José y Laura Chapa. Frank Solís habló sobre el recorrido, desde que incorporaron a su padre al Salón de la Fama de Tejano R.O.O.T.S. hasta el renombre de una calle de Melvindale en su honor. “Me siento muy honrado de que mi padre sea parte del Salón de la Fama de la Música Conjunto de Texas” y añadió “Está ahí arriba con las leyendas, pero ahora pienso que es uno de ellos. Se merece estar allí”.

La ceremonia concluyó con la inauguración de una nueva señal de tránsito que marca la intersección de la calle Martin H. Solís Jr. y la avenida Stanley; después, los asistentes bailaron en la calle al ritmo de las canciones del álbum de Solís.

La fiesta continuó durante todo el fin de semana. El sábado por la noche, se llevó a cabo un baile de celebración en el Prestige Banquet Hall en Allen Park, MI, con música en vivo de Joaquín Chávez y Los Conjunto Boys de Sarita, Texas. El domingo, el festival inaugural de música tejana Martin H. Solís, Jr. en el exterior del bar Parts & Labor en Melvindale, con música en vivo del grupo local Grupo Vicio.

Al comentar sobre la importancia de los eventos del fin de semana, la comisionada del condado de Wayne, Clemente, dijo: “El hecho de que esta calle de Melvindale tenga el nombre de su padre fue muy importante para la familia, ya que se honra a Martin Solís”. Continuó: “Su esperanza es que más personas de la comunidad conozcan su legado y la música tejana”.
