Another song from Vicente Fernandez that carries out the serenata tradition is “Amor de mi Alma” in which he confesses his feelings of betrayal that a woman has brought upon him. Another influential mariachi artist Pedro Infante also sings with a Mariachi band. He sang with a traditional Mariachi band because he felt that mariachi represented the roots of Mexico and he was proud of his heritage.

Krebs seemed to have a very caring mother and father.
