Local Tejano legend Bobby Pulido has announced his retirement from music but with future plans to enter the arena of politics. In a live-streamed message on his Facebook page Thursday, Pulido said he’ll perform a farewell tour in 2025, and in 2026 will make a run for public office.
The Edinburg native didn’t say what office he’s considering nor which political party he’ll affiliate with. Pulido is a Latin Grammy-winning, 30-year veteran of the music business but noted that he studied political science in college before pursuing his music career.
