Bobby Pulido was born and raised in Edinburg, Texas, where he still lives today with his wife. He’s the proud father of four sons, raising his family in the same community that shaped him. The son of a farmworker-turned-musician, Bobby grew up with the values that define South Texas—hard work, family, humility, and faith.
After graduating from Edinburg High School, he studied political science before pursuing music, eventually becoming a two-time Grammy Award-winning Tejano music star. For nearly three decades, he toured and performed across the U.S. and beyond, but he’s always stayed closely tied to the Rio Grande Valley.
Outside of music, Bobby has also run small businesses. He’s signed paychecks, balanced budgets, and dealt with the everyday challenges local business owners know well. That experience gave him a real understanding of what it takes to create opportunity in South Texas.
At home, his biggest priority is being a husband and father. Raising four sons in Edinburg has only deepened his connection to the community and his focus on the future. In his free time, he enjoys hunting and being outdoors, staying close to the land and traditions he grew up with.
Bobby believes in practical solutions and common-sense leadership. He talks often about the pressures families are facing—from rising costs to healthcare to the realities of life in a border community—and the need to focus on what actually helps people day to day.
For Bobby, the Rio Grande Valley isn’t just where he’s from, it’s who he is.
